ORHOND AND HOUNT PLEASANT. 



•p'-* HE HOTEL ORMOND, which has been spoken of throughout the resorts of Florida in un- 
\Cr\ stinted praise of its table and the happy manner of entertaining its guests, has been, as it 
^~-^^ were, transplanted for the summer from the sunny ridge of the Halifax Peninsula to the 
rugged heights of New Hampshire, where, in its more luxurious summer garb as the " New Mount 
Pleasant House," it continues to give refreshment and grateful shelter to the traveller. It is there 
the Mount Pleasant House, but in all that makes glad to tourists it is still the Orraond, as Messrs- 
Anderson & Price, with practically their entire force of skilled and efficient help, continue to be the 
living spirit within it. 

It is a beautiful building, located on the edge of the great White Mountain Plateau, at the north- 
ern entrance to the main pass of the mountains, the " Crawford Notch." The famous peaks of the 
White Hills encircle it, and their crystal springs and streams and glorious atmosphere bring health 
and gladness to its guests. 

The hotel caters for early and long season business, making rates to favor the early arrivals. 
The Mount Pleasant makes a specialty of entertaining travellers and tourists coming to the White 
Mountains to make the ascent of Mt. Washington, as it is the nearest house to the mountain, and the 
trains on the Mt. Washington Railway start from the very door-yard (after leaving the Fabyan station) 
to make the ascent, and it is the first hotel reached on the descent. From their own windows guests 
can see Mt. Washington from base to summit, and can decide in the morning whether to prepare for 
the ascent or await a more favorable day. 

It is the terminus in the White Mountains of the Concord and Montreal Line from Boston, and 
it has a platform landing close to the house for passengers on through train from New York by Conn. 
R. Line, and from Boston and Portsmouth by the Boston & Maine R. R., and from Mt. Desert, Poland 
Springs, and Portland as well as from Burlington and Montreal by the Maine Central R. R. Thus, by 
its accessibility from the outside, having through parlor cars to its very doors from New York, New 
Haven, Hartford, and Springfield, and from Boston, Montreal, Burlington, and Portland, and the ease 
with which it is reached from all the neighboring resorts, it is a most desirable tourist centre. 

It is a particularly favorable rendezvous for tourists going east from Saratoga, Lake George, 
Lake Chaniplain and the Adirondacks, as it is so easily reached from Burlington, the train leaving 
there at 10 30 A. M., via Montpelier, arriving at the station on the Mount Pleasant Hotel grounds at 
4.05 P. M. 

The Mt. Plea-i^ant view of Mt. Washington and the "Presidential Range" is the grandest dis- 
play of mountain scenery in America ea.st of the Rocky Mountains. 

The pure water of the Mount Pleasant spring, and the pure air of the White Mountain plateau, 
1,700 feet above the sea level, make it one of the greatest health resorts in the world. 

Driving is a great feature of the season at the Mount Pleasant, as ,from its central location, all the 
drives of the mountains are tributary to its livery, which is the best equipped in the White Mountains. 
The party wagons are especialU' comfortable, and of a kind not elsewhere in use, except at Poland 
Springs, for which place they were originally designed, and have there proved a most popular success. 

The house is striking in appearance architecturally, and is provided with every comfort and 
luxury of a thoroughly fir.st-class hotel. Among the minor features are electric lights, steam heat, 
open fires, private baths, bowling alley, billiards, shuffle board, tennis court, base ball field, golf links, 
mountain paths, and, as a final attraction, the very best table that can be provided. An artesian well, 
drilled four hundred feet through solid rock, and supplying the purest, softest water, is a notable 
feature. 

The orchestra is one of the finest among the New England resorts.

has proved so conducive 
to health, that an enchant- 
ing haven of rest, termed 
the Glen Jlountain House, 
has been built on a clift in 
the-life giving atmosphere 
cf pines and hemlocks, 
where malaria is un- 
known, and to whose cool 
shades thousands annually 
repair for rest and recre- 
ation. It possesses all the 
modern conveniences ; oc- 
cupies an elevation oi 300 
feet above the village, and 
is the ONLY hotel con- 
nected with or in the 
immediate vicinity of 
Watkins Glen. 

The Uming Room is 
in a Swiss Chalet across 

the Glen from the Hotel, whereby allheal and uupleasant odors arising from cooking, and noise 
and confusion occasioned by servants, are wholly avoided, rendering the Glen Mountain House one 
of the most delightfulh- cool and p'ea.santly situated summer hotels in the United States. A beauti- 
ful iron suspension bridge (covered), one hundred feet above the water, connects the two and fully 
protects the guests from sun and storm. It is a charming and .somewhat novel idea and quite popular. 

Apart from the hotel is the Amusement Hall, where all rational amusements, mu.sic, dancing, 
billiards, bowling, and rifles for ladies, can be enjoyed. 

FREE admission to the Glen is enjoyed only by guests of the Glen Mountain House, notwith- 
standing publications of others to the contrary. 

Satisfactory arrangements will be made", and every facility afforded for the accommodation oi 
excursion parties, whether for the day or longer. 

Popular rates will prevail at the hotel, and any information requested will be promptly furnished 
by addressing

Somerset Inn ^ ^ 





'_^_JSSSSB^- 



" I 'HE SOMERSET INN, near Bernardsville, on the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Rail- 
■*■ road, is located among the highlands of New Jersey, in Somerset County (and in addi- 

tion to the Inn there are for rent eight (S) handsome cottages, which cost to build $6,000 to 
$9,000 each, and are beautifully furnished). Appreciation of the healthfulness and charms of 
this section is shown in the many beautilul homes with which the hills are dotted. 

The most important feature of this part of the country, however, is its healthfulness. 
The spring water, of which there is an unlimited supply, has been again and again analyzed, 
witii tile result tiiat it has been pronounced by ciiemists the purest of waters. The dryness ot 
the climate has proved especially beneficial to those sufleimg from rheumatism, neuralgia 
and weakness of throat and lungs. 

Hard wood floors and trim, handsome new furnishings throughout, the best of beds, 
large, well-ventilated bed rooms and bath rooms, hot and cold water, gas, steam heat, open 
fire-places, spacious parlors, reading looms, foyer hall and wide piazzas, make one's surround- 
ings at Somerset Inn homelike and comfortable to a degree rarely found abroad. 

Every convenience is maintained looking to the comfort of our guests; telephone, tele- 
graph, post-office, good livery service, best accommodations for private turnouts, laundry, 
bowling alley, tennis court, golf links, billiard room, etc., while comfortable stages meeting 
the eight trains each way daily, make the Inn easy of access. 

Bettei roads for driving and cycling, more picturesque drives and walks, better water, 
milk and air, can no where be found. 

The country, lying as it does 800 feet above sea level, warm nights are unknown, and 
there are no nuisances, not even mosquitos. The grounds are tastefully laid out, and shade 
trees abound. 

The children have not been forgotten. A fine play-ground in the pretty grove is 
arranged for their pleasure, and a play-room, for those days which must come now and then, 
when the little ones cannot go out of doors. Here they may enjoy themselves to their hearts' 
content, and annoy no one. 

This is not an idealized picture of what we wish we could offer, but a plain statement 
of facts. 

Where else, so easily reached, can such accommodations and environments be found? 
The Inn will open for guests June third and remain open during the fall months. Should 
further information be desired Mr. GEO. W. TUTTLE, the manager, may be found at the Inn, 
and will gladly accord every couitesy and attention to inquirers, either personally or by mail.

NO. 3 QUEEN CITY VESTIBULED SPECIAL. 

Special notice.

Tntroduction. 

CHE Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad Company, in 
issuing its Summer Excursion Book for 1807, feels that it again 
places before the travelling public a book that will be found 
useful. The complete register that is given of all the available rural or 
urban spots along its line between New York and Buffalo, cannot but 
help the tourist, the vacationist and the holiday seeker in the selection of 
a resort, wherein the summer months can be spent to an advantage. 

A glance at the following pages will suffice to show that many of 
the most famous resorts in the States of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and 
New York are directly on the Lackawanna Line, so that special allusion 
to them here is unnecessary. 

A description of each place is given, much space being devoted to 
such among them as rank as summer resorts of national fame. 

The illustrations herein contained are reproductions of photographs 
taken from scenes along the railroad, and are of a miscellaneous character. 

A feature that will commend itself at once is the exhaustive list of 
routes and rates that is given, and which can be utilized in connection 
with tickets purchased via the Lackawanna Road. 

Those in search of rest, of recreation, or of sport have only to o-lance 
through these pages, and from among the many mountain, lake and river 
resorts described, or from those where wealth and fashion reign supreme, 
select a place to their taste. The Lackawanna penetrates a section of 
country so diversified and so picturesque, that any person with an 
appreciation for the Creator's handiwork, as displayed through almost 
the entire region traversed bv this road, will be apt to reflect before 
making a choice. 

Great care has been taken in the compilation of this book to guard 
against errbrs, and it is offered to the public as a reliable guide and a 
work replete with interesting reading. 

The Company feels assured that the public will appreciate the effort 
that has here been put forward, and presents it to that public with the 
compliments of the Passenger Department.

Ferries. 
N leaving New York, the traveller by the Dela- 
ware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad 
is carried across the Hudson by well appointed, 
double-decked ferry-boats, equipped with spa- 
cious upper and lower cabins, and lighted with elec- 
tricity. 

Barclay Street. The ferry from the foot of this 
street makes the trip to Hoboken in twelve minutes. 

Christopher Street. The trip across is made in 
five minutes. 

Hohotcen. Here is located the terminus of the 
Company's road, the depot being a model of artistic 
Ijeauty. The station is Gothic in design, with long 
sloping roofs, and on the northern side has a high, 
narrow tower, which adds greatly to its attractiveness. The general waiting-room 
is both large and airy. On the east side is the ticket office ; on the south 
side is a room for ladies and a smoking room for gentlemen. 
On the north side are entrances for Hoboken patrons, as well 
as for those who cross from New York by the two ferries. A 
good restaurant, where a buffet lunch can be obtained, is pro- 
vided in the waiting-room, and confectionery, fruit, etc., is 
obtainable at the counter adjoining. 

The baggage-room is on the north-west corner, and passen- 
gers and others will always receive prompt and polite atten- 
tion and answers to inquiries from the employees in that 
department. 

The United States, the only Express Company operating 
over the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad, has an 
office located near the baggage-room, where its patrons can 
secure the benefits of its superb service. Its Order and 
Covtuiission Department can be called upon to procure for 
the Summer Ciuest or others all that is needed either from the 
city or the country. 

Experienced and well-informed ushers are stationed at the 
doors through which pas.sengers pass to the trains. These 
men give the inquirer any^ information concerning the arrival 
and departure of trains, and, before the departure of each 
train, call out the names of all the stations along the route at 
which stoppage will be made. 

The above-stairs portion of the station contains the head- 
quarters of this railroad's branch of the Young Men's Christian 
Association, which are fitted up attractively. The con- 
ductors have a comfortably appointed room adjoining, and 
a furnished reception room. Baths, hot and cold, are pro- 
vided. There is also a room in which all the men crm meet 
for social intercourse, reading, playing games, etc.

THE HALL BLOCK SIGNAL.

DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 




The large train-shed contains nine tracks, 
all of which are occupied the greater part of 
the time by the incoming and outgoing trains. 
It has been the policy of this Company to 
abandon regular train service on Sundays, and 
this has been found to work to the best advan- 
tage. Only newspaper and milk trains are 
run on Sunday's, and this cannot very well be 
avoided. 

The motive power and rolling equipment 
of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western 
are of the most approved types. The locomo- 
tives are built for speed, and with a view to 
hauling capacity. Spark arresters and exten- 
sion fronts are being applied to all of those 
engines that were built prior to these innova- 
tions in modern mechanics, and all new 
engines are fitted with these appliances when 
built. In addition each engine is equipped 
with the " Blizzard" engine lamp for classifi- 
cation service. 

The exteriors of the cars are painted in 
the Company's standard color, dark green, 
while the interiors are finished in polished 
mahogany. The Company has adopted the 
Pintsch system of car lighting. Each car is 
fitted with globes containing four burners, 
from which a clear, white, brilliant light is 
obtained, which enables passengers to read in 
any part of a car without .straining the eyes. 
It is the opinion of experienced travellers 
that no railroad in this country runs better 
equipped, or has more easy riding cars than 
these ; and all trains are protected at the rear 
by two utiliiy side tail lamps, well elevated, 
thus securing the longest possible range for 
the rear danger signal. 
On all through express trains the modern vestibule attachment is used, and 
Pullman's best drawing-room and sleeping-cars are run. 

The Lackawanna is a double-track line to Buffalo, and is the shortest route run- 
ning between New York and that city. The road-bed is heavily ballasted with gravel 
and sand and is of unusual firmness. The heaviest steel rails are used to accom- 
modate the additional weight of the constantly 
improving motive power and rolling stock. 

By reason of these improvements travelling on 
this line is accompanied with all available ele- 
ments of comfort and ease. The enjoyment of 
j^^-^j^^^^^iKj ^ this result of skillful engineering and car build- 
,1 ap^^^^ iug^ is materially increased by the using of an- 




thracite coal in the locomotives.

Hoboken, is 



HARRISON. Altitude, 29 ft. 

7.17 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 15 cts.; Excursion ticket, 25 cts. 
This town, formerly known as East Newark, is situated in Hudson County, and 
borders on the Passaic River. It is principally known for its manufacturing indus- 
tries. 



22 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & W^ESTERN R. R. 



NEWARK. Altitude, 38 ft. 

7.69 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 15 cts.; Excursion ticket, 25 cts. 

This city is the commercial metropolis of New Jersey. It is sitvaated on the west 
bank of the Passaic River, upon which craft of all kinds ply, and affords important 
communication with New York through Newark Bay and Staten Island Sound. 

Newark is one of the oldest cities in the State. It covers a large area in Essex 
County, and ranks as one of the most important manufacturing centres of the United 
States. Its iron and leather industries being among its chief industries. 

The population is over one hundred and eighty thousand. 

Broad Street, running north and south through the city, is one of the most 
attractive thoroughfares in the country, containing many great business hoiises, 
elegant residences and churches. Washington and Military Parks, with their 
numerous stately elms, are the pride of Newark ers. High Street is famous for the 
architectural beauty of its numerous costly dwelling houses. 

The extreme northern, southern and western sections of the city are largely 
occupied by residences, and Newark lays just claim to having throughout clean and 
well-maintained streets. 

The famous Passaic River course, where the National Association of Amateur 
Oarsmen occasionally settle their contests is situated here, and the course is known 
as one of the best for rowing used. It is decidedly picturesque on the Kearney side 
of the river, and at intervals, along both shores, the boat-houses of the various clubs 
are located. 

All conveniences of a first-class city can be had here. These include gas, 
electric light, fine hotels and boarding-houses, good street car systems, theatres, 
athletic clubs and churches of ever}- denomination. The drives in all directions 
are pleasing. 

Newark, too, is a healthful and well governed city. Its death rate is low, and 
epidemics seldom prevail. Several first-class daily papers supply the news. 

The society of the city includes a number of the most famous families of 
New Jersey. 

ROSEVILLE AVENUE. Altitude, 143 ft. 

9 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 15 cts ; Excursion ticket, 25 cts. 
Formerly Roseville was a suburb of Newark, but the phenomenal growth of that 
city absorbed it. It is wholly a residential section, and stands high and dry at the 
summit of the heaviest grade on the division. The houses are tastefully built, nearly 
all of them being surrounded by gardens. Roseville Avenue is destined to become 
the most thickly settled part of the city, and residences are increasing with a rapidity 
worthy of a Western boom . At this station the Bloomfield Branch leaves the main 
line. The first stop is at 

WATSESSING. Altitude, 135 ft. 

10.95 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 23 cts.; Excursion ticket, 40 cts. 
Here there is but a small settlement and a few farms. This is a congenial spot 
for quietude, and the residents have all the de.sirable elements of sociability. An 
important and progressive village just beyond it is 

BLOOMFIELD. Altitude, 124 ft. 

11.5S miles from New York ; Single ticket, 25 cts.; Excursion ticket, 45 cts. 
The history of this town is associated with Revolutionary times, and it is among 
the best known places in the State. Although the enterprise of modern civilization 



DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. K. 



has imprinted itself in every section, yet there are some old-fashioned houses and 
other landmarks which serve to remind one that Bloomfield was on record a century 
ago. At the head of the park stands the old church, a sacred pile, that for more 
than one hundred years has stood to the glory of God. For many years Bloomfield 
has been the favorite resort of summer visitors. It is rich in its arboreal growth, 
has fine roads, good society, and all the elements that arise from thrift and progres- 
siveness. It is the home of many prominent business men, and the residences, in 
many instances, arc both sumptuous and costly. 

Adjoining Bloomfield, and but one mile beyond it, is 

GLEN RIDGE. Altiiiuh', 170 ft. 

12.22 mile.s from New York ; Single ticket, 27 cts.; Excursion ticket, 47 cts. 

It can be consistently said that this is one of New Jersej^'s beauty spots. Built, 
as it is, upon a hill, which commands a charming view of the surrounding country, 
an attractiveness is given it that favors but few places in this region. Ten years ago 
Glen Ridge was little more than a wooded slope. Wealth and enterprise have 
developed the available acres, and the work of improvement is still progressing. 
This is a village of handsome residences, grassy lawns, park-like estates, and fine 
roads. The residents, for the most part, are New Yorkers, and these have all the 
push that characterizes the wide-awake Gothamite. 

Glen Ridge is a pleasant and a convenient spot in which to spend a summer. 
The last station on the branch is 

MONTCLAIR. Altitude, 239/1. 

13 14 miles from Xew York ; Single ticket, 30 cts.; Excursion ticket, 50 cts. 

Montclair (often called the Athens of New Jersey), lying on the eastern slope of 
the Orange Mountains, is unsurpassed for beauty of situation and healthfulness in the 
vicinity of the metropolis. 

The majority of the residences command magnificent views of New York harbor 
and the surrounding country. 

The population is ten thousand, and the town is growing rapidly in a ver}' sub- 
stantial way. The public schools are excellent, and there is a military academy and 
several private schools. 

The churches represent all the denominations. The water supply is excellent, 
and the town enjoys all modern impro\emcnts. Three newspapers record all local 
matters of interest. 

Mountain Avenue, running at the l)ase of the mountain from the Orange line to 
Upper Montclair (3^^ miles), dotted by magnificent residences, is said to surpass any 
avenue or street in the vicinity of New York. 

Montclair cannot be seen, to be appreciated, in an hour or two. One must pene- 
trate its bj'-wavs and shaded avenues to realize how much nature has done for this 
terraced hamlet. 

About two-thirds of the roads are macadamized, and it will only be a matter of a 
few years when they will all be so. 

This town may be recommended as desirable in every way, as a place of 
residence. 

Verona and Caldw^ell 
are villages beyond Montclair, which are not on this line of railroad, but communi- 
cation with them is attained by a stage route that connects with all Lackawanna 
trains at Montclair. The stage fare is 10 cents. 



34 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 

Mention is made of these places, as they are widely known and appreciated for 
their remarkable health-possessing qnalities, and the picturesqueness of the sur- 
rounding country, together with their adaptabilitj' for summer residence. 

Returning again to the main-line, the next station beyond Roseville Avenue is 



GROVE STREET, EAST ORANGE. Altitude, 153 ft. 

9.65 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 20 cts.; Excursion ticket, 30 cts. 
A town of phenomenal growth and rich with pretty homes. The streets are 
uniformly laid out, paved, curbed, and have flagged sidewalks. A feature of the 
place is that the houses, for the most part, are built separately, and have spacious 
lawns, neat gardens, and beautiful shade. The streets, too, are lined with spreading 
shade trees. There are churches of all denominations within easy reach. The near- 
ness to Newark and New York makes Grove Stteet a particularly desirable place of 
residence or temporary sojourn. 

EAST ORANGE. Altitude, 172ft. 

10.04 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 25 cts.; Excursion ticket, 35 cts. 

The same maj- be said of East Orange as has been said of Grove Street. In 
reality the former may be called the town proper, as many of the large stores that 
supply residents are located here. No more bustling little place exists on the line. 
It has all the elements of enterprise, including water, electric light, etc., schools, 
churches, social clubs, etc. 

The Orange Athletic Club, known the country over, has fine grounds located 
here in the vicinity of the railroad station, and the drives which extend in all direc- 
tions are as delightful as they are varied. 

BRICK CHURCH. Altitude, i8o ft. 

10.63 miles from New York; Single ticket 25 cts.; Excursion ticket, 40 cts. 
Years ago, before the Oranges gained the enviable distinction they now possess 
as places of residence, the old brick church marked the place surrounding which this 
delightful town has been built. The name, therefore, for some reason, has clung to 
it. Years ago the name may have been appropriate, but to-day it has no special 
significance beyond that it recalls memories of times gone by. Brick Church may 
be said to be in the heart of the Oranges. There are but few luxuries obtainable in a 
large city not available here, and this town long since established for itself a reputa- 
tion for being a most desirable one for residence. Here, situated on Prospect Street, 
is the beautiful home of the Orange Club, the principal social organization of the 
Oranges, and also the Orange Athletic Club House, which is both spacious and artis- 
tic in design. 

ORANGE. Altitude, 1S5 ft. 

11.36 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 25 cts.; Excursion ticket, 40 cts. 
The city is located on a plain, almost level, and in all New Jersey no more 
delightful one can be found. Along the main avenue stores of all kinds do a thriv- 
ing business. Electric and other street cars run to nearby points, arrangements in 
this respect being most convenient. The streets of the city are uniformly 
laid out and delightfully shaded. The private residences have spacious lawns about 
them, and many of the structures are marvels of architectural beauty. Electric 



DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 25 



lights and good water are anions- the luxuries. The city supports an opera house, 
and two or three nswspapers. Churchesof all denominations raise their spires in every 
part of the town. The system of schools is as perfect as can be found anywhere. A 
charm about the city is the high mountain range that skirts the western boundary. 
The range is called Orange Mountains, and is a spur of the Blue Ridge. It runs 
toward the northeast, and slopes gracefully toward the valley in which the city is 
partly located. At the summit of the mountain is located Llewellyn Park, laid out 
with every elegance of taste and effect in artistic landscape gardening. It contains 
the homes of wealthy people, and is acknowledged to be the most magnificent spot 
in New Jersey. Nearby, from Eagle Rock, a view of 25 miles around the country 
can be had. Thomas Edison, the "wizard of electricity," has a fine home in the 
park, as also had the late Gen. McClellan. The side of the mountain is flecked 
with imposing residences and finely laid out grounds ; among the oldest and finest 
being that of the Essex County Country Club, whose historic house and beautiful 
grounds make it one of the most charming country clubs in America. 



HIGHLAND AVENUE. Altitude, 183 ft. 

12.23 miles froiu New \ork ; Single ticket, 30 els.; Excursion ticket, 50 cts. 
A few years ago this section of the Oranges was called " Valley Station," because 
the business portion lies in a valley. The name, in a sense, was misleading, because 
the side hills afford a most beautiful residence section. In addition to being a most 
desirable place in which to reside. Highland Avenue has a commercial importance. 
Its hat industry is very extensive, and the quality of the hats made ranks favorably 
with those manufactured elsewhere. An incline railway near here conveys passen- 
gers to the summit of the Orange Mountains, and a ride on it is an enjoyable experi- 
ence. 

MOUNTAIN STATION. Altitude, 156 ft. 

13. oS miles from New York ; Single ticket, 35 cts.; Excursion ticket, s,', cts. 
There is a vast difference between this and its nearest neighbor. While High- 
laud Avenue is realy a very busy place. Mountain Station is the opposite. Essentially 
a town of homes it is picturesque in the extreme. Nature has been allowed to hold 
sway to a very large extent, and the feature that will impress the visitor most favorbly 
is the magnificent shade that makes the summer months congenial. To the north 
the valley reaches until it meets the mountains, and is dotted with pretty residen- 
ces. To the south the hill rises gradually from the railroad station, and residences 
with park-like grounds are to be seen in all drections, and extend along westward 
until they unice with 

SOUTH ORANGE. Altitude, 139 ft. 

13.84 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 40 cts.; Excursion ticket, 60 cts. 
The Oranges terminate here after occupying five miles of territory. South 
Orange is an important place, because it is the terminus of a number of express and 
accommodation trains to and from New York. Like the other towns it is famous as 
a place of residence. Churches and schools are plenty, and good local government 
is a feature that recommends it. The drives about South Orange are romantic, and 
good roads are the rule. The " Field Club," an organization that needs no introduc- 
tion, is favorably known wherever outdoor sports are discussed and indulged in. The 



26 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 



club-house and beautifully laid out grounds, between Mountain Station and South 
Orange, are in plain view of passing trains, and here the wealth and beauty of the 
united Oranges meet in season to enjoy some of the best contests of the State. 

The club-house is equipped with all the appurtenances of a first-class club, to- 
gether with the necessary conveniences of one devoted so largely to field sports. 

The grounds, twelve acres in extent, include a quarter mile bicycle -track, three 
baseball diamonds, eight tennis courts, two football fields, croquet grounds, quoit 
courts, shooting traps, etc. 

From early summer till late in the fall, open tournaments are held in all out-door 
sports, in which the prominent amateur athletes of the country participate, and the 
bicycle and foot races, tennis and trap shooting contests, attract widespread 
attention. 

A most interesting feature connected with the Field Club is the opportunity it 
affords to all its members for indulging in out-door sports and games. "Business 
men's" contests in baseball, tennis, quoits, etc., take place during the season, and 
those only are allowed to compete who have never acquired nmch skill in such 
sports. The prominent athletes have their opportunity in the open tournaments. 
Further, the children of members have exceptional facilities for innocent and 
healthy amusement in the grounds, and are afforded every protection by the keepers 
in charge. 

The Field Club is essentially a family club, and is readily taken advantage of by 
all who are attracted to South Orange and its vicinity, and as a family summer resort 
it is very popular. In winter part of the grounds are flooded, and good skating is 
enjoyed. 

MAPLEWOOD. Altitude, 131 ft. 

15-36 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 45 cts. ; Kxcursion ticket, 65 cts. 
A very prett}- place for persons who delight in beautiful scenery is Maplewood. 
Its location, at the base of the mountain, gives it a wild charm. As j-et the village 
has not developed to any great size, but it has several very pretty cottages situated on 
well-made streets, and there is plenty of shade. It has excellent water, fine drives, 
and pure mountain air. For a summer vacation spot it ranks among the most 
desirable. 

WYOMING. Altitude. i6oft. 

16-39 iiiiles from New York ; Single ticket 50 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 70 cts. 
Wyoming is a delightful little town, situated right on the side of the mountain. 
At this point the " first mountain " turns directly northward. Here are many 
beautiful homes, with spacious grounds, in the midst of a high-wooded slope, where 
all is wild and picttiresque The scenery around Wyoming is charming, and never 
grow tiresome. There is not an objectionable feature in the town or neighborhood. 
It is essentially a home-spot, and persons who go there never regret it. 



MILBURN. Altitude, 148/1. 

17.01 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 50 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 75 cts. 
This is an old-fashioned town with quaint houses, whose style of architecture 
suggests a half-century or more ago. It even possesses the conventional mill-pond, 
which adds to its antiquated appearance. Milburn has always been a popular place 
for summer boarders. It is surrounded by farms, and has good boarding-houses in 
town. An excellent supply of water is one of the essential features of the place, and 



DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 27 

its well-cared-for roads are known all over the State. The terminus of the ^lilburn 
bicycle course is here, and in the season wheeling never ceases. 



SHORT HILLS. Altitude, 206 ft. 

17.86 miles from Xew York ; Single ticket, 55 cts. ; l^xciirsion ticket, 80 cts. 
Short Hills can be especially recommended as a charming place of residence. 
vSituated in a large park, the residences, all of which are palatial, occupy plots, around 
which wind smooth macadamized roads. There are no fences round-about, and every 
house has a well-appointed stable attached. The aim of the individual who established 
Short Hills has been carried out well. It is for homes only, and not a single place of 
business is connected with it. A few years ago this delightful spot was but a wooded 
slope. Enough of the grand old forest trees have been preserved to afford a pleasing 
shade, that in summer almost hides the houses from view. 



HUNTLY. Altitude, 306 ft. 

19.11 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 55 cts. ; E.vcursion ticket, 80 cts. 
A little station on the mountain, established to accommodate the few people who 
reside there. A fine view of the valley can 1)e had, and on a clear day New York Bay 
is visible. 

SUMMIT. Altitude, sS^ft. 

20.14 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 55 cts. ; Kxciirsion ticket, 80 cts. 

There is no place on this line that can lay claim to more advantages than Sum- 
mit. As its name implies it is situated on the brow of the second mountain, and is 
reached after the hard climb of a grade that begins at Milburn. 

This village has developed solely on its own merits. Its growth has been strong 
and so far shows no signs of abating. Backing the development of Summit are men 
of wealth and thrift. The houses that are in course of erection are attractively laid 
out, and its macadamized streets, of which there are over fifty, are of the finest and 
most elaborate kind. Owing to its altitude Summit is a bracing spot in which to 
spend the summer. The air is always fresh and salubrious, and on that account 
persons afflicted with pulmonary troubles have made it their permanent home. In 
summer the population generally doubles. All the hotels and boarding-houses, of 
which there are many of the first-class, are well patronized, and the place in summer 
presents a lively appearance. Many of the permanent residents rent their homes for 
the season, and the demand often exceeds the supply. Looking northw^ard from 
Summit is a magnificent view of the Passaic Valley and Blue Ridge Mountain and 
towards the southeast, Brooklyn, New York Bay and Staten Island can be seen. The 
drives through the valleys and over the mountains are magnificent. 

Churches of the Episcopal, Methodist, Presbyterian, Baptist and Catholic faiths 
abound. The social centre is the Casino Club, to which is attached a theatre, bowl- 
ieg alley, etc. The Club is composed of the prominent men of the place and is well 
patronized. The Fresh-Air Home, so well known, and with which many benevolent 
women of Summit are identified, is situated on Stony Hill, south of Summit. The 
town is lighted with gas, and has a new and excellent sewerage system ; it is also 
supplied by the Commonwealth Water Company with pure water drawn from springs 
in the mountain. 

At Summit the Passaic and Delaware Branch diverges toward the w-est and runs 
for 21 miles through a valley of unsurpassed beauty and loveliness. The first station is

WEST SUMMIT. Altitude, 340 ft. 

21.83 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 65 cts.; Excursion ticket, 95 cts. 
A small settlement of qitiet homes. The surrounding country is given up to 
agricultural pursuits. 

MURRAY HILL. Altitude, 251ft. 

23.40 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 70 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.00. 
The ridge that skirts the village on the east is from whence the place is named. 
vSeveral elegant homes of New Yorkers are situated here and the view is extensive 
and very fine. The country is fertile and studded with many prosperous farms. 

BERKELEY HEIGHTS. Altitude, 226 ft. 

25.77 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 75 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.10. 
Until very recently this place was unimportant. A company having purchased a 
tract of land, has parcelled it out in building li)ts and laid out streets, and Berkeley 
Heights is soon destined to become a thriving spot. 

GILLETTE. Altitude, 213 ft. 

27.15 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 85 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.15. 

A quiet settlement surrounded by hills and containing charming patches of scenery. 
It is a fine farming country and a healthful place for summer boarders. 

STIRLING. Altitude, 221ft. 

28.51 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 90 cts.; Excursion ticket, |i.20. 
This place is associated with revolutionary history by having been named after 
Lord Stirling. Along the ridge of Long Hill are several pretty residences. The view 
of the valley for miles east and west is one of the best in Morris County. Many of 
the residents find employment at a silk mill near by. Aside from this, agriculture is 
the principal pursuit. 

MILLINGTON. Altitude, 274 ft. 

30.16 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 95 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.25. 

This is one of the most picturesque spots on the branch. The Passaic River here 
seen winds around big bluffs and through fertile meadows and gives a charm to the 
surroundings seldom met. Several persons have taken advantage of the picturesque- 
ness of the place to build handsome houses. The drives about Millington are inter- 
esting and the roads good. 

LYONS. Altitude, 305 ft.

attraction in its bracing atmosphere. 

BERNARDSVE.LE. Altitude, 430ft. 

34.75 miles from Xew York ; Single ticket, $i.io; Kxcursion ticket, $1.45. 

This attractive place, situated as it is in the midst of the Somerset County hills, 
is frequently alluded to as the "Alps" of New Jersey, aud the name is not misap- 
plied. Being beyond the first range of mountains (the Oranges) west of New York, 
the distinct change from the dampness of the ocean to dry mountain air is at once 
felt. The entire section abounds in wild scenery, changing frotii a very extensive 
outlook over and beyond fertile valleys to byways through gorges, alongside of 
mountain streams amidst luxuriant foliage. The mountain roads are hard and always 
smooth and lead in all directions through pretty villages and an extremely prosperous 
farming section. Since its first settlement by New Yorkers many years ago Bernards- 
ville has been the most popular of New Jersey resorts until now its population is 
represented largely by summer residents, whose beautiful and costly residences dot 
the hills and appear at every turn in the landscape. Near here is situated "Round 
Top," the beautiful home of Frederic P. Olcott of New York City, comprising one 
thousand acres of land, and the most extensive breeding farm in the East. It is 
worth a day's journey to visit this estate. Its miles of shaded drives are always open 
to the public. The Bernardsville-Mendham district has long been famous as a health 
resort to those suiTering from Rheumatism and complaints of a Malarial origin ; there 
is no marshy ground in this section of mountain aud valleys, and Mo.squitos are 
unknown. 

Situated in the hills between Bernardsville and Mendham is the "Somerset 
Inn," surrounded by eight cottages especially well built and finished for the accomo- 
dation of the guests of the hotel, it is the best equipped mountain hotel within 100 
miles of New York. The Inn has recently been enlarged and refitted and affords 
accommodations that can be favorably compared with any other first class hotel in the 
country. Special fast train service brings Bernardsville within one hour of New York 
hy rail. The Inn accommodates 250 guests.

an old place with a new name, and is a town that has made great strides since it ob-

Returning to the main line the next station beyond Summit is 

NEW PROVIDENCE. Altitude, 271ft. 

21. 6g miles from New York ; Single ticket, 60 cts.; Excursion ticket, 95 cts. 
The village lies back about a half mile from the station. It is a farming region 
and quite popular with city people, who find it a pleasant spot in which to spend the 
summer season. 

CHATHAM. Altitude, 231/1. 

23.33 niiles from New York; Single ticket, 65 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.00. 
This ancient town has always been held in high esteem by many who return 
every year to spend the summer. It has much to recommend it. The Passaic River 
flows through it, and affords good fishing and boating ; the drives through the valley 
and over Long Hill are delightful. The Chatham Fish and Game Protection Asso- 
ciation, which has recently erected a handsome Club House here, looks after the fish 
and game in the vicinit3^ 

Stanley, situated south of Chatham on the Eastern slope of Long Hill, is a set- 
tlement of pretty homes, and, from its location, a grand and ever-changing panorama 
of the valley of the Passaic spreads out before the eyes. On account of the scenery 
from Long Hill, this locality has become popular. 

MADISON. Altitude, 243 ft. 

25.55 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 70 cts.. Excursion ticket, $1.10. 

This enterprising town has for the past three years been prospering under a 
borough government. It has a Mayor and Town Council at the head of its affairs; it 
also possesses excellent water and electric light systems, and all the comforts of a 
large city are available. Building is very active and promises so to continue. Madi- 
son rejoices in four churches and the Webb Memorial Chapel, an imposing edifice, 
built and presented to the town by James A. Webb, Esq., a prominent and enter- 
prising citizen. This place has been known as a health resort for a longtime, and 
on that account, may well be recommended. It is noted for the number of its elegant 
residences, many of which are surrounded bj' large estates. Mr. H. McK. Twombley 
has laid out, at an enormous cost, over 200 acres as a park, and the work will result 
in one of the finest estates in New Jerse}-. The town itself is in a valley, and on 
both sides of the long sloping hills pretty homes are located. The view from these 
hills across the Passaic Valley is one of the features that captivates the seekers of 
suburban homes. 

Drew Theological Seminary, in the immediate vicinity is well known and is 
visited by persons from all parts. Good roads and picturesque drives make Madison 
a pleasant resort for city people during the summer months.

name.

AWAITING TRAIN-, MORRISTOWN STATION. 



MORRISTOWN. Altitude, 326 ft. 

29.70 miles from New York ; Single ticket, So cts.; t'xcursion ticket, $1.25. 

This old town, so prominently identified with the history of the Revolutionary 
War scarcely calls for any introduction. 

Its fame was estalalished when it was first chosen by Washington as the head- 
quarters of the Continental Army, and the associations of those stirring times of our 
nation's history are still cherished by the descendants of many of the gallant 
soldiers who took up arms and fought for their independence under the leadership 
of General Washington. 

Not the pages of history alone point to Washington's association with Morris- 
town, for his headquarters, situated on an eminence in the northern part of the city, 
have been preserved, and since they came into the possession of the State, more land 
which has been laid out in beautiful grassy lawns, and broad paths skirted by shade 
trees has been reserved about them. Cannon that have, from time to time, been 
used in defence of the nation, and which were individually presented, are mounted 
and frown threateningly around the quaint old building. The national emblem is 
spread to the breeze daily, not only to indicate the spot, but to show that the patriot- 
ism of our fathers is still ablaze in the breasts of their descendants. To quote from 
the address of Hon. Theodore F. Randolph, on opening of this building to the pub- 
lic, July 4, 1875 : " During the summer of 1873, this property, so long and widely 
known as the old headquarters of W^ashington, was offered for sale. A few gentle- 
men concluded to purchase it, and having done so, formed a society known as the 
Washington Society of New Jersey, the principal object of which is to perpetuate 
this house with its great historic associations, and to gather within these walls so 
large and interesting a museum of articles connected with the Revolutionary and 
other history of the Colonies, that this old mansion, rendered immortal by the name 
of Washington, shall become a Mecca towards which all Americans will turn their

steps and obtain, as from a fountain, inspiration to patriotic life and purpose. Under 
this roof have been gathered more characters known to the military' history of the 
war of the Revolution than under any other roof in America — a fact not generally 
known. Here, the elegant and brilliant Alexander Hamilton lived during the long 
winter of 1779, and here he met and courted the lady he afterwards married, the 
daughter of General Schuyler. Here, too, were Green, the splendid fighting Quaker, 
as he was, and the great artillery officer Knox, the noble La Fayette, the stern Steu- 
ben, the polished Kosciusko, the brave Schuyler, gallant Light Horse Harry Lee, old 
Israel Putnam, mad Anthony Wayne, and that brave soldier, but rank traitor Bene- 
dict Arnold. Here, too, from time to time, gathered prominent members of the Con- 
tinental Congress and statesmen of that day. This dwelling was also for many 
months, the home of Martha, the wife of George Washington. Within these rooms, 
with quiet dignity and grace, she received her husband's guests. Never idle, she sat 
a constant example of thrift and industry. In front of this house, in yonder meadow, 
lay encamped Washington's bod}' guard — originally a selected troop of about one 
hundred Virginians. Day and night they kept watch and guard over these head- 
quarters and the precious lives it contained. Many were the plans, and several were 
the attempts by the enemy to pierce to this old house and to the powder-mill in its 
rear, and thus at one blow destroy all hope of successful revolution. Had this house 
been once successfully attacked, and its inmates taken, America's Revolution would, 
in all probability, have been known to history as America's Rebellion. But. among 
these hills of Morris no Briton's foot ever trod in Revolutionary times save as a 
prisoner." 

Fort Nonsense, where Washington's guns were planted, is at the sunmiit of the 
highest hill in town. There a survey of the valley and surrounding country was 
made and a careful watch was kept for the appearance of the enemy. The site of the 
old fort is marked by a slab bearing a suitable inscription. 

Morristown may justly claim not to have rested solely on its past record. It now 
has a population of nearly 10,000 and is governed by a Mayor and Common Council. 
Kvery convenience that other cities afford is here available. The avenues are broad, 
delightfully shaded, and well maintained. Some of the most magnificent residences 
in the country are located here, and they may be found in all parts of the city, on the 
neighboring hills, and in the suburbs. This entire region is a sanitarium, and no 
more healthier spot can be found. The population is made up largely of wealthy 
New Yorkers, and in summer it is the most sought-after resort within the same dis- 
tance of New York. Manufacturing is not permitted within the city limits. The 
Green is a public park occupying an entire square. It is shaded by stately elms, 
and is divided into fine walks. An elegant soldiers' monument stands on the west 
side of the Green. 

The drives for miles around are most beautiful. Pocahontas Lake is a pretty 
sheet of water within the cit}' limits, and contains bass and pickerel. It affords good 
sport for the angler, and the catches are often large. Speedwell Lake is another 
pretty spot, situated about a mile outside of the city toward Morris plains, and offers 
inducements to fishermen who wish to try their skill. 

Mendham is seven miles from Morristown, and stages connect with all trains to 
carry passengers there. It has the distinction of being located in the heart of the 
mountains, and there is scarcely a cooler or more bracing spot in all New Jersey. It 
is renowned for its health giving qualities, and also for the long extended view over 
valley and lower mountain. The place is nothing but an old-fashioned village, filled 
with quaint houses, honest people, fertile farms and perpetual happiness. If Mend- 
ham had first-class railroad facilities it would prove a dangerous rival to all other

places in the State within the same distance from New York. In the warmer months 
it is filled with summer boarders, and its attractions are almost without limit. 

MORRIS PLAINS. Altitude, 403 ft. 

32.01 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 90 cts. ; Excursion ticket, $1.35- 
Many people regard Morris Plains as being the most beautiful spot along this 
line. It derives its name from the fact that the town is built on a high plateau, sur- 
rounded on the north and west by mountains. Summer here is delightful, on account 
of the breeze having a clear sweep across the plain. The soil is sandy, and within an 
hour after a heavy shower is very often as dry as though there had been no rainfall. 
For this reason the entire section is remarkably healthful. The roads are splendidly 
kept and driving is a luxury. A mile back from the station is the imposing building 
of the State Hospital for the insane. Morris Plains is composed nearly entirely of 
fine buildings, owned and occupied by well-to-do citizens. There is a small lake 
within the village limits, where boating and fishing can be enjoyed. 

MOUNT TABOR. Altitude, 531 ft. 

35.66 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $i.oo ; Excursion ticket, $1.40. 
Mount Tabor has become famous on account of the annual gathering of the 
Methodists, who hold their camp meeting exercises here, and enjoy a quiet sociable 
time in accord with their religious precepts. It is one of a number of picturesque 
peaks that jut out from the Blue Ridge Mountains. The mountain slope is dotted 
here and there with pretty cottages owned by members of the Methodist faith, and 
occupied by them nearly all summer. Life here is calm and enjoyable, and the place 
, is restricted against all nuisances and disorder. 

DENVTLLE. Altitude, 520 ft. 

36.33 miles from New York ; Single ticket, Ji.oo ; Excursion ticket, $1.50. 
This is a quiet farming district, with few inhabitants. To those who enjoy farm 
life and its attendant luxuries of fresh eggs and milk, it may be well recommended. 
A short branch road connects Denville with Boouton, and the run between these 
points occupies but fifteen minutes. 

ROCKAWAY. Altitude, 556 ft. 

3S.05 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.05 ; E-xcur.sion ticket, $1.60. 

A good deal of life is to be found in this bustling little village of manufacturing 
industries. Rockaway is prettily situated, partly in a valley and partly on a hillside. 
The Rockaway River flows through it, lending to the picturesqueness of the place. 
The village boasts several good stores, and in summer is a favorite vacation resort. 

The attention of the reader is now directed to the Boonton Branch, which meets 
the Morris and Essex division at Dover, the next station beyond Rockaway, where 
both lines continue westward as one. 

After leaving Hoboken, the first station west of the Hackensack River, is 

KJNGSLAND. Altitude, 25 ft. 

7.12 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 25 cts.; Excursion ticket, 35 cts. 
Noted principally for being the place at which the Company's machine shops are 
located. The village is thrifty and of steady growth. It contains many farms and 
some pretty cottages.

LYNDHURST. Altitude, 34 ft.

The country about here is attractive, and the pretty village that is growing about 
the railroad testifies to its healthy popularity. A very pleasant summer can be spent 
here in driving and roaming about the country. 

DELA WANNA. Altitude, 53 ft. 

9.38 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 35 cts.; Excursion ticket, 45 cts. 
A quiet spot, of great beauty, and few inhabitants, bordering on the Passaic River, 
which at this point assumes a picturesqueness that at once charms the newcomer. 
Boating, bathing and fi.shing are among the pleasures of this place. 

PASSAIC. Altitude, 97 ft. 

10.91 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 40 cts.; Excursion ticket, 55 cts. 
Passaic is one of the three important cities on the branch. It contains a popula- 
tion of over 20,000, and is a thriving city, where enterprise carries everything before 
it towards prosperity. The city contains many miles of broad, well-shaded streets, 
and is famous for the large number of its elegant residences. No city in New Jersey 
has enjoyed a more rapid and continued growth. Here are churches of all denomina- 
tions, a theatre, athletic clubs, etc. Although Passaic is a city, it attracts hundreds 
of city people each recurring summer. 

CLIFTON. Altitude, 121ft. 

12.15 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 45 cts.; Excursion ticket, 65 cents. 
The village of Clifton lies to the eastward of the railroad, and is as pretty and 
well laid out as any in the State. It is noted for the number and variety of its shade 
trees, and the quiet character of its inhabitants. 

PATERSON. Altitude, i8S ft. 

14. 6S miles from New York ; Single ticket, 50 cts ; Excursion ticket, 70 cts. 
Paterson is called the " Lyons of America," on account of its immense silk indus 
tries. It is one of the largest cities in New Jersey, and in the importance of its indus- 
tries, principal among which is the building of locomotives, probably ranks second. 
The Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad runs along the western section of 
the city, and plays an important part in its commercial welfare. A tour of the 
manufactories is not only interesting but instructive. The high falls of the Passaic, 
famous throughout the country, are also worthy of a visit on account of the great 
beauty of Nature's handiwork.

and refined. Here all the comforts of country life await the stranger, and the fertile 
farms that dot the valley supply vegetables, milk and eggs in abundance. Little Falls 
turns out a great amount of carpeting every year, the falls here being the attraction 
for the manufacturer. The angler, too, can enjoy himself, and if fortune favors, may 
find good luck in casting his line in the Passaic, for at this point black bass fishing is 
excellent. The angling grounds are above the falls.

BCXDNTON. Altitude, 411/1. 

29.63 miles from New York ; Single ticket, So cts., Excursion ticket, $1.25. 
Boonton is among the oldest towns in the State. It is beautifully situated on a 
mountain side, and commands a magnificent view extending over 15 miles across 
the Passaic Valley. There is a grandetir about the Rockaway River as it flows down 
the mountain through the town and then breaks into foaming cascades as it tumbles 
along the ravine, winding in many directions descending the valley. The Rockaway 
River at Boonton affords wild views that are seldom equalled within the limits of 
civilization. Boonton was at one time a great iron mantifacturing centre, but of late 
years this industry has fallen into decay. As a place of residence it is superb, the 
society is good, the surroundings are salubrious, and the air is permeated with the 
ordor of pine from the mountains. As a summer resort, this town is too well known 
to need recommendation, and the city people who spend the hot months here do not 
seem to be able to get back again soon enough. 

DenvillE, where the Boonton Branch tracks cross the M. & E. Division, is 35 
miles from New- York by this line. After a Tun of four miles around the base of a 
high mountain, both lines meet at 



DOVER. Altitude, 573 ft. 

41.61 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.10; Excursion ticket, $1.75. 
On entering Dover, one finds a busy centre surrounded by high hills and delight- 
ful scenery. The large shops of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western are located 
here, and a small army of men are kept at work the year round building new cars 
and repairing the old. Several other thriving manufacturing industries are also 
here. Dover is a great mining centre, the adjacent mountains being filled with a 
fine deposit of iron. The U. S. Government powder works are located at Picatinny. 
and are one of the attractions to visitors. The city has fine schools, churches of all 
denominations, and an opera house. The mountain drives in this section are pe- 
culiarly inviting. The Rockaway River and Morris Canal both flow through the city. 
In summer, Dover is one of the liveliest cities in New Jersey. 



PORT ORAM. Altitude, 642 ft. 

43.40 miles from New York ; Single ticket, ji.15 ; Excursion ticket, |i.8o. 

A quiet little farming hamlet which derived its name from being a station on the 
Morris Canal. 

After leaving Port Oram the Chester Branch runs eleven miles westward through 
a country famous for its rugged mountain peaks, green valleys and brisk streams. 
This entire section of Morris County ranks among the most healthful portion of New 
Jersey. There is no limit to the pastoral beauty of the scenery north, and the advan- 
tages Port Oram has for vacation enjoyment are numerous. The fertile farms offer 
every inducement to lovers of rest and quiet, and the hotels and boarding-houses 
cater especially for city boarders. In fact, all of the villages overflow with city

MT. ARLINGTON. Altitude, 995 ft. 

46.36 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 31.25; Excursion ticket, $1.95. 
Mount Arlington is the station from which Lake Hopatcong is reached by wagon 
for stage, and was established by enterprising citizens of Lake Hopatcong as a con- 
venience in reaching trains. From this station to Lake Hopatcong Country Club, 
formerly the Hotel Breslin, an electric railway will be run. 



HOPATCONG STATION (Lake Hopatcong). Altitude, 926 ft. 

48.86 miles from New York ; Single ticket, f 1.30 ; Excursion ticket, $2.05. 

On alighting from the train the prospective sojourner expects to have his craving 
for a glimpse at this silver pool in the mountains satisfied at once. But in this he is 
mistaken. Instead, a little steamboat of the Lake Hopatcong Steamboat Co. 
awaits him at the landing, adjoining the station on the Morris canal, and runs by a 
rather unusual and interesting route to all important points on the lake to deliver 
passengers. 

One of the novelties of the trip is a pleasant ride of a mile up the canal to the 
lock. On reaching the latter point the boat is "locked in" and raised up several 
feet, and when the surface is reached, Lake Hopatcong, with its clear green water, 
irregular shores and numerous rock-bound, wooded islands, presents itself with such 
suddenness as to completely enrapture all who are contemplating a loiter of more or 
less lengthy duration on its sloping shores. And at the Lake Landing, one hundred 
and fifty feet north of the station, are also other steamers— the latter belonging to 
the Hopatcong Steamboat Company — which carry passengers to all points on the 
Lake. The boats of the Hopatcong Line are comfortably appointed side-wheelers, 
and at the present comprise the " Hopatcong, " the "Musconetcong," and a steam 
launch, the " Nariticong." In addition to these, a new steamer has been launched.

The lake itself is partly located in Morris and partly in vSussex county. Its alti- 
tude is 1,027 f^st above the sea level, and 36 feet above the Delaware River, 35 miles 
westward. The water, which rises from crystal springs, is transparently green, very 
deep, and teems with game fish. Black bass and pickerel of enormous size are caught 
every season, and catfish of good w-eight are also taken. Hopatcong is the rendezvous 
of expert fishermen and fisherwomen, and it is the rare sport thus provided that 
attracts many an angler here each season. Howard P. Frothingham, Ksq., Mayor of 
the borough of Mount Arlington, himself an enthusiastic fisherman, is the fish warden 
for L,ake Hopatcong. He enjoys his ofTice, because, as a true sportsman, he likes to 
see game fish protected. Woe be to those caught by him fishingout of season, or in 
season, for that matter, using nets, fikes or any other unlawful means of trapping the

fish. Persistent effort on his part has driven these scalawags out of his jurisdiction, 
so that legitimate fishermen who go to Hopatcong can count on having good sport 
and happj' catches for their trouble. 

In this limited space it would be impossible to describe or do justice to the 
famed beauties of this lake. It so closely resembles Lake George that it is frequently 
alluded to as the " Lake George of New Jersey." This allusion is justified, although 
Lake Gecrge is so much larger as to make the comparison hardly fair. Lake Hopat- 
cong (1,027 feet above sea level), however, has an advantage of 6S5 feet in altitude 
over its rival, and in the beauty of its scenery its equality is unquestioned. 

Indian tradition is closely associated with both lakes, although Hopatcong never 
had a Cooper to weave that subtle charm about it that will always cling to the " Hor- 
icon," as a result of the ingeniously constructed plots and charming description of 
Central New York given by the famous writer of "The Leatherstocking Tales."

water is ruffled by the slightest breeze, its depth appears to lessen, and at sunset 
when the surface becomes mirror like, the shadows of the mountain seem to sink 
fathoms in its sparkling depths. 

About the middle of June the influx of visitors commences, and from that time 
until September one round of gaiety succeeds another. The hotels and boarding- 
houses are full, the lake becomes dotted here and there with pleasure craft of all 
descriptions, from the frail canoe with sail and paddle to the costly steam launches. 
The Lake Hopatcong Country Club, formerly the Hotel Breslin, at Mt. Arlington, 
will be the abode of fashion and culture. The grounds surrounding it are terraced, 
and handsomely laid out with blossoming shrubs and flowers. The view from 
the long piazza over the lake comprises many pretty patches of scenery. 

For camping out this place excels all others. The wooded shores offer the finest 
kind of seclusion ; the bathing is good, and fishing adds materially to the pleasures of 
camp life. Not the least interesting feature of an evening on the lake is to watch 
the camp fires gleaming here and there along the opposite shores, and listen to the 
frequent camp cries of "rival " parties blending with song and accompaniment. 

The little hamlet of Mount Arlington is a collection of neat cottages bordering 
on the lake, and on the hill above it. One of these, the cottage of Miss Lotta 
Crabtree, the actress, deserves particular mention, because its interior is not only 
gorgeous in its appointment, but in the extent of its artistic arrangements it has been 
praised by every connoisseur in decorative art. 

The walks and rambles are as numerous as they are beautiful, and while out on 
a tramp anyone fond of exercise is likely to run across an extraordinary number of 
people, and wonder whence these folks came. Anyhow, everyone there is out for 
pleasure or rest and each makes the best of his opportunity. 

A peculiar freak of nature here is Floating Island, at the southern extremity of 
the lake near Shippenport. The island never appears over one foot above the sur- 
face of the water, and is covered with tamarack, spruce and wild flowers of a curious 
growth in great variety. 

Raccoon Island is on the eastern boundary of Henderson's Cove and is covered 
with a heavy growth of timber. From the fact that human bones have been un- 
earthed on the island, it is supposed that the Indians buried their dead there. 

Halsey Island, opposite Nolan's Point, is artificial. Many years ago the Canal 
Company, with proper authoritj', flooded the lake and this caused the water to rise to 
a sufficient height to flood part of the main land peninsula, thus forming several 
islands, of which this is the largest. 

The River Styx, an arm of the lake that empties into it back of the mountain, is 
quieter than any place around. It is a romantic spot, and on account of the solitude 
that prevails is a favorite abode for such birds as herons, which stand in the water on 
one leg, heedless of all that surrounds them. 

Henderson's Cove is probably the most beautiful spot on the lake ; it is made so 
by the rugged bluffs that overhang it, which are covered by a hard}' growth of oak 
and hemlock. Trips by boat to the cove are one of the fascinating pleasures of life 
here. 

The lake finds its outlet by the Muscouetcong River, which flows in an irregular 
course and empties into the Delaware, 40 miles distant. At times the Canal Company 
utilizes the water as a means for feeding the Canal, and at such times the lake surface 
recedes two feet or more.

Stanhope has become known, not on account of its iron-smelting industries, but 
by reason of its general thrift. It has several churches and schools ; has stores of all 
kinds, and rejoices in one weekly paper. Passengers alight here to be staged through 
the mountains to 



BUDD'S LAKE. Altitude, 933 ft. 

Distance from Stanhope, 3 miles. 

" Restless and sparkling, its silvery sheen. 
Reflects the bold hills in a setting of green." 

This pretty sheet of water, almost circular in shape, Vjoasts of being one of the 
most delightful lakes near New York. It is the resort of many people who love to 
enjoy the summer season surrounded by pleasant associates in an atmosphere of pure, 
health-giving air. The beauties of Budd's Lake are always enjoyable, and there is no 
monotony in a sojourn there. The man who likes fishing, here may gratify his whim 
by dropping in his line and hauling out vigorous black bass or pickerel. Both these 
voracious varieties are ready to meet the angler half-way and take the alluring bait. 
The wonderful stillness of the water, especially at evening, attracts the holiday maker, 
and boating is much indulged in. The conventional hammock can find no more de- 
lightful place to swing in than above the ruffled wavelets, as, under the influence of a 
cool morning breeze, they ripple on the pebbly shore. Everybod}^ comes here in 
happy expectancy, and unless hypercritical and difficult to please, they are not disap- 
pointed, except, perhaps, at the too short .summer which gives way to breezy autumn 
when the inevitable "good-bye " to the mountains has to be spoken. The sportsman

ON THE SUSSEX BRANCH. 



On account of the mountainous character of the neighborhood, game of all sorts 
abounds. The partridge is frequently seen along the highways, and, during the fall — 

" Up from the stubble gets the quail, 
I hear the partridge drumming." 

Bears, too, are not strangers in Sussex, and scarcely a season goes by that some one 
does not have to recount the destruction of one or more of these furry creatures. The 
summer sojourner, of course, is not as eager to kill bears as to roam about at will 
and avoid them. There is no danger, however, of meeting bruin in the summer 
months, as it is only in winter that he ventures within the bounds of civilization to 
forage for his provisions, and when satisfied with a pig or two, he returns quietly to 
his lair. 

As there are innumerable farms and plenty of good hotels and boarding-houses, 
the region through which the Sussex Railroad runs is particularly inviting to summer 
vacationists. In fact, any person who appreciates a mountain summer, with pleasant 
surroundings, can make no mistake in giving any of the places mentioned a season's 
trial. On leaving Waterloo, the first station is

Is a picturesque village of about 600 population, at#u altitude of 650 to 763 ft. 
Among the mountains and lakes, along the line of the Sussex Branch of the Lacka- 
wanna, at junction of the Lehigh and Hudson Railroad, 60 miles from New York 
City. 

It is noted for its neatness, healthfulness and grand scenery. From Ilill-top, five 
minutes walk from depot, a view surpassed by none in the State of New Jersey, over- 
looking the Blue Mountains for 55 miles, including Jennie Jump, Delaware Water 
Gap, Culver's Gap, High Point, as well as Sparta, Panther and Allamuchy Mountains. 

Among the 44 lakes that surround the village in a radius of eight miles are Lake 
Hopatcong, Swartswood, Panther, Cranberry, Auble, Stag, Turtle, Roseville, Bear, 
White, Slater, Gardner, Iliff, Goodale and Burkmire, all of which afford excellent 
bass and pickerel fishing, several of the above being near the village. The drives in 
all directions are exceedingly attractive. The lakes and mountains remind one of 
Switzerland. The Methodist church is a model, the Presbyterian very neat. Six daily 
trains to and from New York City. Morning papers, 8 a. m.; evening papers, 6 p. m.

NEWTON. Altitude, 599 ft. 

65.53 miles from New York ; Single ticket. Si 90; Kxcursiou ticket, $2.95. 
Newton, the county seat of Sussex, is considered one of the prettiest, as well as 
most prosperous, towns in North Jersey. The altitude ranges from 580 to 800 feet 
above mean tide at New York. The population is about 3,500, and the locality one 
of the healthiest in the State. The town has two shoe factories, employing over 500 
persons, besides other manufactories. Its streets are lighted by arc electric lights, 
and water has been introduced into the town. Gas is also at command for lighting 
and heating. The principal streets are macadamized, and the sidewalks are flag and 
granolithic. As the nights are invariably cool, the daily range of 15° to 25° brings 
refreshing sleep, and mosqtiitoes are rarely seen. It has two newspapers, which are 
known far and wide as compendiums of local news. With prompt and convenient 
train service, there is no more desirable place in the Jersey Highlands. Business 
men traveling between town and city are favored by trips in the cool of the day, the 
average running time being two hours, and on some trains without change of cars. 
New York morning newspapers reach the town at 8.30 A. M. The drives in the 
neighborhood are noted for their beauty, and the proximity to Swartswood, Culvers, 
Hopatcong, and other lakes, render a summer residence a matter of comfort as well 
as pleasure. There is a Sunday train to and from New York.

60.10 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.65 ; Excursion ticket, $2.45. 

This is one of the oldest towns in New Jersey. It is situated in the midst of 
pleasant surroundings, and is an enterprising village of pretty homes and well shaded 
.streets. It has a Mayor and Council and its municipal government is good. The 
Hackettstown Collegiate Institute, known throughout the country as a prominent 
seat of learning, is situated here. During the summer sea.son the town is very active 
on account of the influx of the city people who come to obtain recreation and whole- 
some air. 

Schooley's Mountain. 

Like an immense forest, lying some distance back from the town, is Schooley's 
Mountain, a resort almost too well known to require detailed description. The 
moiintaiu when viewed from a distance, resembles a long plateau, so even is its sum- 
mit, and it is covered with a rich growth of forest trees. Nature has been so un- 
usually kind to this romantic spot that many wealthy gentlemen have selected it as 
their summer home. Among these are Alfred Sully, Esq., the well-known railroad 
magnate, and Mr. E. D. Stokes. The Sully abode is palatial in its appointments, and 
the grounds are laid out in bright flower beds, arbors and shrubbery. Mr. Sully takes 
great pride in his valuable assortment of gra])es, and has one of the choicest graperies 
in the State, The air on the mountain is cool and bracing and is favorable for all

This city, one of the largest in the State and an important railroad centre, is the 
last in New Jersey on the line of this road. It is situated on the Delaware River. 
In mentioning Phillipsburg it is sufficient to indorse it as a city where can be had all 
conveniences other places of its size afford. The manufacturing industries are im- 
portant and represent vast wealth. But Phillipsburg is most important as a railroad 
centre. 

EASTON, PA. Altitude, 218 ft. 

84.24 miles from New York : Single ticket, $2 lo ; Excursion ticket, $3.30. 
Easton is situated just across the Delaware River from Phillipsburg, and is con-

If this little town were referred to as a small edition of Sheffield, it should not 
be considered as inappropriate. The iron industry is all that is recognized here. 
The Oxford Steel and Iron Company controls the immense plant that turns out nails 
famous the country over. Nearly all the inhabitants depend on this industry for a 
living. The town was founded by a Scranton family, and its great success is prin- 
cipally due to their energy. Blairstown, the home of the Hon. John I. Blair, one of 
New Jersey's iron kings, is within a few miles of here, and is well worth a visit.

Of all the resorts along the 'line of the Lackawanna, none is more strikingly 
beautiful than this great handiwork of Nature. Its praises have been sung for gene- 
rations, and one never wearies of them. From the time that the Redskin ruled the 
domain the popularity of this grand chasm through the mountains has been estab- 
lished, and each year the demand for hotel accommodations continues to increase. 
There is a peculiar rugged picturesqueness aboitt the scenery that attracts the atten- 
tion of the observer, and holds it until it is so firmly imprinted on the mind as never 
to be forgotten. Residents love to tarry by the clear water of the grand old Delaware, 
and enjoy the pleasures of lioating and fishing, and the transient visitor is willing 
to journey any distance, if it is only to spend a day here. Many excursions are run 
to Water Gap from different points during the summer months, and so popular have 
these become that they are booked for months in advance at the Company's passen- 
ger department oflfice. 

A critical review of this region, and the Delaware River, cannot fail to be of 
interest to the readers. 

The Delaware River rises 200 miles northward, in two lateral branches flowing 
from the western slope of the Catskill Mountains, 2,000 feet above the sea level. The 
western branch passes through a lake near its source, retaining, strange to say, its 
quaint aboriginal name " Utsayantha." This is described as a circular sheet of 
transparent water covering an area of 70 acres and having an elevation of 1,888 feet ; 
a mirror of beauty in the wooded wilderness, so secluded that few, save the red men, 
have ever gazed upon its serene solitude. In its course, the river hugs the base of the 
grand old mountains, older in date of upheaval than the snow-clad " Alps," which 
once formed a barrier to its passage, and rolled back the flood of waters, submerging 
for a long time the lesser hills and swelling plains that now, clad in verdure, adorn 
its borders. 

The character of the rocks in this portion of the Blue Ridge is that of gray and 
red sandstone and conglomerates, containing white quartz pebbles of large size. The 
escarpment at the point of dislodgnient is more bold on the New Jersey portion of 
the mountain, the means of the angle for the entire elevation of 1,600 feet being 
about 70 degrees, while projecting cliffs, as seen from the gorge, exhibit sections of 
perpendicular descent. On the Pennsylvania mountain the general slope from the 
summit to the river is less precipitous ; a mass of talus having been detached from 
the crest by the frost of winter, and pouring like lava down its sides, has covered 
the surface to the depth of many feet, concealing the rugged projections that charac- 
terize the face of the opposite mountain.

The Lover's Leap. — This is the artist's favorite spot and is made memorable as 
the scene where the Indian Princess " Winona " and her lover took their fatal step. 

Caldeno Creek. — This is a noted spot. It has its rise high up the side of 
Mount Minsi. Dashing and foaming in its descent, it flows at length into the valley, 
and after gladdening the inmates of several farm houses, changes its course and runs 
close by the ruins of an old saw mill, which at ofle time it made busy as the machin- 
ery was put in motion b)' the splashing of the water over a big wheel. From the old 
mill the stream flows across a green meadow and loses itself in an entanglement of 
forest, from which it again emerges at Moss Cataract, dashes over its mo.ssy bed, fills 
Diana's bath afresh, gives a leap over the falls of its own name and hastens on to 
lose its identity in the broad waters of the Delaware. 

Table Rock and Cooper's Cliff. — Both are situated on an extended rocky 
platform of about 300 feet in elevation, overlooking the river and the cultivated hills 
in the distance. The confused mixture of forest and hills, and the cultivated land 
below the cliff on which one stands, form a beautiful foreground to the finely devel- 
oped proportions of the gorge in the distance. 

Sunset Hill rises only a few rods to the northeast of the apparently undisturbed 
stratification of Table Rock, and is a confused, disjointed, irregular mass of rock 
from base to apex. 

We have given a tolerably fair idea of the general character of the scenery and 
views of Water Gap, but its attractions, if they begin, certainly do not end there. 
There are numerous walks besides those we have named, and drives which we have 
not mentioned at all — long drives to the beautiful falls of Winona and Bushkill, and 
short drives to romantic places with commonplace names : Fox Hill, the Knob, Lake 
of the Mountain and a dozen others. Stroud-sburg is but four miles distant.

Spragueville is an attractive village surrounded by many hills, which give it a 
picturesque appearance. It is the summer home of several wealthy persons whose 
residences are costly and beautiful. Like its larger neighbor, Stroudsburg, it is 
located on Brodhead's Creek, which at this point is decidedly pretty, and is famous 
for the fine trout fishing it affords. The Analoniink streams, both celebrated for 
their trout, are near the village. The drives are magnificent for miles around and 
pleasure afforded by them coupled with riding and walking keep tourists busy enjoy- 
ing themselves.

If you were anxious to spend all day Saturday catching fine brook trout — beauties 
that run up to a pound and three-quarters — you could not do better than take the 
short trip on the D. L. & W. necessarj- to reach Henry ville, a little town prettily 
situated on a mountain side. At the station you will find a spanking team of farm 
horses and a good springy buckboard ready to take all comers over the mountain to 
Parkside. Here you are surrounded by some of the most prolific brook trout streams 
in America — East and West Branch, Brodhead, Cranberry, Heller, Paradise and 
Devil's Hole — all famous. Parkside, on the banks of the Analomink, is a beautiful 
little rural retreat, not more than three hours' ride from New York. The Park 
House is situated in the centre of beautifully laid out grounds, with the river at one 
side and the mountains on the other. The altitude of the place gives it perfect free- 
dom from mosquitoes and malaria, and in summer the temperature is delightfully 
cool. 

The ride over the hills from the station will furnish an appetite alone worth the 
trip. And the food ! I'ood that is sweer and fresh, food that is free of a city smell, 
food that has a natural ring to it — butter, cream, eggs, milk, vegetables, and all sorts 
of things, right from the farm. Lounge about the farm Friday evening, smoke your 
pipes or cigars and listen to the yarns about the big fish you will have to battle with 
in the morning. When you retire for the night sleep will not be difficult to woo, and 
you can peacefully close your eyes with the cheering knowledge that a refreshing 
breakfast will be ready when you open them again. After that go forth to flail the 
wooded streams, and your basket will be heavy with fine-sized fish on your return. 
Sunday resting about the farm, eating delicious fruit, and breathing the invigorating 
mountain air until night falls again, will fill the day with restful memories. The 
early morning train may be taken on Monday, and — the city reached all too soon. 
The points of interest within easy riding or driving distance are the Water Gap, Red 
Rock Glen, Prospect Ledge, Silver Cascade, Pocono Summit, Point Lookout and one 
or two others of less fame.

Cresco is situated in the highlands of Monroe County close to the Delaware 
River. It can be safely said that the forests and streams about here give more pleas- 
ure than the average sportsman can find time to enjoy. A region of woodland and 
water, it attracts them every season, and has attained for itself a well deserved repu- 
tation.

MOUNT POCONO. 



Altitude, 1,824 ft. 



114.14 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $3.35 ; Special ticket, $3.15 ;

The Pocono Mountains cross the northeastern counties of Pennsylvania and are 
spurs of the same great chain that crosses the Atlantic section from the Catskills in 
New York to the Black Mountains in North Carolina. 

The extensive panoramic view that spreads before one's gaze emphasizes the fact 
that Mount Pocono is very nearly the highest point of the mountains. In the fore- 
grotind, the few clearings give a touch of cultivation ; further down is the wood-covered 
valley, and beyond, the pine-clad hills roll back, dotted here and there by a farm

house or a clearing, the horizon bounded by the long line of the Blue Ridge, standing 
out like a huge rampart. A little to the right, Pocono Knob raises its rock-bound 
summit two thousand, six hundred feet above the level of the sea. On the left, 
through the famous Delaware Water Gap are seen the hills and mountains of New 
Jersey. Over all the moving cloud shades cast their ever changing tinge of light and 
shade. 

The atmosphere is wonderfully dry, pure and pine-laden, far more so than at an 
equal altitude along the main Alleghaney Range. The many persons to whom 
mountain breezes are as a sparkling cordial, will find here on the spurs of the Pocono, 
all that need requires or fancy seeks. 

The thermometer registers on an average from ten to fifteen degrees lower than 
in the cities of New York and Philadelphia. The nights are cool and the air soft and 
balmy. There are no mosquitoes. The climate here is almost a specific for malarial 
diseases and can be equally recommended to those suffering from debility due to over- 
work, over-worrj' or other causes. The altitude is not so great as to increase nervous 
conditions as is the case in higher altitudes. 

Here all throat and chest troubles are benefitted and weak lungs are made strong. 
To hay-fever and asthmatic subjects this locality is a blessing. In a word, this Poco- 
no region is second to no eastern locality for all of the requirements of a typical 
health resort. 

As a proof of the dryness of the atmosphere, it is stated that as a rule, the grass 
will be entirely free from dew on summer nights as late as eleven o'clock. 

The success of the Mount Pocono region 
as a health resort is fully assured and there are 
now ample hotel and cottage accommoda- 
tions within a few miles of the station. 

Some of the hotels have every modern 
convenience, steam-heat, enabling one to 
enjoy cool weather, the laurels and rhod )den- 
drons of June as well as the changing foliage 
of the invigorating autumn days without the 
discomfort of an improperly heated house ; 
rooms en suite with private bath, ample par- 
lors, billiard rooms, porches, and all other modern conveniences. 




THE WISCASSET. 







DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA .S: WESTERN K. R. 6.3 

There are uiniierous walks and drives, the roads beinj^ exceptionally 
good for a mountain district. The Indian Run drive on the grounds of 
"The Wiscasset " is especially romantic. The various streams in the 
neighborhood are easily accessible and give good S])ort with the rod. There 
is also good hunting in the autumn. The popular games, notably golf, 
tennis and croquet are amply provided for. 

The rhododendron and laurel should be mentioned as an especial 
attraction in the spring and early summer. I/ate in June the rhododendron 
is in its glory and the thousands of bushes covered with delicate blossoms^ 
each as it breaks open its pink shaded treasure of bloom forming a perfect 
boquet in exquisite contrast to the wealth of dark green behind, makes a 
dainty picture, worthy the brush of the most ambitious painter. 

The water in this region is of the pure.st quality. Minerals being scarce, it 
naturally carries a mininmm (juantity of these substances and there is no region that 
can boast of purer water than the Pocono Mountain region. 

Some of the hotels are supplying their guests from springs situated at a distance, 
beyond the possibility of contamination, bringing the water in rustless, tasteless 
pipes to properly located cement reservoirs, from which in turn it is piped to the 
hotel as pure, sweet and sparkling as when it rushed forth at the spring.

Elmhurst, nine miles from Scranton towards New York, has in the last few year, 
come into deserved prominence as a place of resort. It is noted for its pure water.'^, 
pure air and beautiful scenery. 

Hotel Elmhurst is replete with every modern improvement, including gas and

second to none in the country. From the heart of the cit}' the road emerges into 
beautiful Nay Aug Park and after spanning Nay Aug gorge with a steel bridge 350

have placed it in the foremost rank of manufacturing cities. Millions of people annu- 
ally pay tribute to the output of coal from the vScranton region; and the steel rails 
that thread this continent from ocean to ocean, and from the Canadian border to the 
Gulf, are to a very large exteat produced in the rolling mills within plain view of the 
Lackawanna trains that speed by.

Scranlon \vitli its 100,000 population is a metropolis of Northeastern Pennsylva- 
nia, and the third city in the state. Being located in the famous Lackawanna-Wyo- 
ming Valley, and on the Lackawanna River, it occupies a succession of hills and 
eminences, important among which is Hyde Park Hill, from which a magnificent 
view of the city and surrounding country may be obtained. 

The city is supplied with good water, and claims to be one of the best lighted 
places in the country. The hotels are good and well maintained. There are churches 
of all denominations, literary societies, social and athletic clubs, and excellent street- 
car facilities. Several railways connect here, making it an important railroad centre 
as well as manufacturing town. Not the least interesting feature of the city is a

visit to the rolling mills and giant coal breakers, which when the busy season is at 
its height, crush and prepare for shipment fifty-five thousand tons a day. A visit to 
the subterranean coal galleries in tlie mines will prove an entertaining experience 
and one worth the trouble. 

Despite the immense amount of manufacturing done here, the city, unlike many 
others, is not permeated with smoke and gases, as might be expected. On the con- 
trary the air is pure, and the city is a very pleasant place to visit or remain in at any 
season of the year. In fact, Scrantou contains as many magnificent residences and 
public buildings as any city of its size in the United States, and this bears the best 
testimony to its healthfulness that can be given. 

Among the resorts within a short distance is Carbondale, with its great switch- 
back and gravity road to Honesdale. Numerous lakes in the surrounding mountains 
afford good fishing, black bass and pickerel being plentiful.

school building, its seven churches, its attractive village hotels, stores, and its many 
pretty homes, some of which are thrown open for the accommodation of summer 
guests. 

Charming drives lead in every direction to natural lakes and streams lying but a 
few miles distant, and these afford excellent fishing. The water is pure and the air

Binghaniton, the " Parlor City," is too well known to require any detailed de- 
scription. It will be sufficient to say that it enjoys the distinction of being as beauti- 
ful a city as the Empire State can boast. The city has good water and the great 
manufacturing industries that have sprung up are due as much to this as to anything 
else. These industries first brought the railroad here, and so many lines centre in 
the city that it is fast taking rank among the great railroad centres of this country. 
The Chenango and Stiscitiehanna Ri%'ers flow through the city and give it a pleasing 
picturescjueness. Elegant residences and fine streets attract visitors, and a tour of 
the different districts meets with appreciation and approval. 

The grand castle-like building known as the Binghaniton State Hospital stands on 
the summit of an eastern hill, commanding a fine view of the cit}' and the picturesque 
Susquehanna Valley. The main and other buildings connected with it shelter 1,300 
insane inmates and five hundred attendants. This is one of the model institutions of 
the State. 

A tribute to Binghaniton's many advantages is the National Commerial 
Travelers' Home, the corner stone of which was laid October 9, 1894, with impres- 
sive ceremonies by the Grand Master of Masons of the State of New York, in the 



80 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTKRN R. R. 

presence of Gov. Flower, of New York, Gov. Pattisoii, of Pennsylvania, their staffs 
and many other distinguished persons. The Home stands upon a bluff commanding 
a view of the entire city, and will cost when completed over ^125,000. Mayor Geo. 
E. Green, of Binghamton, is President of the Commercial Travelers' Home Associa- 
tion of America. 

Other public institutions are the new Federal building, just completed at a cost 
of |r50,ooo; two Orphans' Homes, two Homes for Aged Women ; an immense State 
armory, and two delightful parks 

On account of its beauty Binghamton has been justly called " The Parlor City." 

At Binghamton the Utica, and Syracuse, Binghamton and New York Divisions

cultivated plains spread a landscape which is trully inspiring to look upon, and 
wonderfully invigorating to pass through. 

Not the least important feature at this place is the number of drives through a 
picturesque country, upon well-cared-for roads, which enhance the pleasure, and 
make this pastime very popular with the guests. Among others are the following : 
To Movtnt Otsego, Otsego Lake, Cooperstown, the Mohawk Valley and Richard 
Croker's beautiful Stock Farm, Henderson Home ; the one most popular of all is around 
Canadarago Lake, a distance of twelve miles over a road as smooth as a floor. Cana-

village. 

The erection of one of the most complete bathing establishments in the world, 
a few years since, has made the place famous as a water cure and bathing resort. 
The celebrated White Sulphur Spring supplies the new bathing establishment with 
mineral water, which is used for baths as well as for beverages, with almost incredible 
results in healing and restoring the feeble and infirm. Several prominent medical 
societies have met here during the past few years, and their resohttions concerning 
the V^aths have always been commendatory. 

The hotels and boarding houses are good and numerous, and several may be 
found along the shores of Canadarago Lake. Churches of various denominations 
flouri.sh, and the Springs boast of a daily paper.

Lake, around which the great salt mines are centered. Syracuse is as famous as 
Droitwich for its salt, and its annual shipments are enormous. It is one of the chief 
cities on the Erie Canal, to which it furnishes a large amount of commerce. The iron, 
beer, potterv, brick, glass and cutlery industries also play an important part in the 
city's prosperity. 

There are a great many hotels, churches and schools in the city. Here is also 
located the University of Syracuse. The Lackawanna Railroad finds Syracuse one of 
its largest distributing points for coal. The company here delivers upwards of half a 
million tons annually, part of which is shipped by canals and connecting railroads. 

Taking it as city and business centre, Syracuse is among the most important in 
the United States.

This old town, originally called Columbia, and later Baldwin's Bridge, until the 
Post Office Department compromised on the present name, represents one of the 
most intelligent communities in Central New York. It possesses many churches 
and schools, and a good paper. Baldwinsville was settled in 1797 by Dr. James C. 
Baldwin, and it derives its name from him. It is one of the pleasantest spots in 
Onondaga County, and is located on the Seneca River, which furnishes several mills 
and factories wnth power. A fine grade of cheese is made here, and the neighbor- 
hood is justl)' celebrated for its good dairies and agricultural products. Fishing in 
Mass Lake is excellent.

An important town in Oswego County, with a population of over 10,000. It is 
.situated on the Oswego River, twelve miles from its mouth, and has magnificent 
water power. Milling is the chief industry, and over 1,500 barrels of grain a day are 
milled. Next in importance come the cheese and dairy interests, which are also 
large. It is estimated that the annual shipment of the products of these industries 
is over 500 tons. Besides these, several tanneries, saw mills and foundries flourish 
here. 

Fulton is an excellent place of residence, and posse.sses many churches of all 
denominations, public and private schools, and two or more weekly papers. Lake 
Neahtawauta is close to the railroad station, and the Oswego County fair groimds 
are near by.

Oswego is the terminus of the division, and a pretty city it is. Situated on 
the shore of Lake Ontario, which appears like a mighty ocean, Oswego is the city 
of "Silver Gloss Starch," and as such it is known on account of the immense quan- 
tity of this commodity that it manufactures annually. The Oswego River divides the 




BURTE POINT, OSWEGO, N. Y. 



city and affords elegant residence sites on both shores. The lake front is also a pop- 
ular place for j)rivate dwellings. Considering that the canal, lake and several lines 
of railroad furnish shipping facilities, it is not to be wondered at that Oswego is a 
prosperous and growing city. It has fine commercial institutions, banks, public 
buildings, and almost unlimited manufacturing industries. As a place of residence 
it has the appearance of an elegant and refined suburb, and the breezes from the lake 
render it delightfully cool and invigorating. In summer, the temperature, at the 
hottest, rarely exceeds 70°. 

The celebrated Deep Rock vSpring is situated here, and, for the accommodation 
of tottrists and invalids, a fine hotel has been erected near it. 

As far back as 1732 the Assembly at Albany appropriated moneys and appointed 
agents and interpreters to look after the sustaining of the trading post called Oswego. 
The French and English had severe engagements for its possession, as many as 
twenty thousand troops being massed here at one time. Some gallant attacks on the 
forts occurred, and many lives were sacrificed. In 1814 the British appeared off 



DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 93 

Oswego, and, landing a land force, captured the city after a desperate struggle, tak- 
ing some of its prominent citizens prisoners of war, the last of whom have but recently 
been laid to rest. Fort Ontario, now garrisoned by a company of the 9th Infantry, 
stands in a commanding position on a high bank on the east side of the river. The 
view of Lake Ontario from the ramparts is expansive and beautiful. The Life Saving 
Station nestles at the foot of the fort bank. An English lady writing to friends in 
the British Empire in 1848, thus describes the climate at Oswego : " When winter 
had once set in Oswego became a perfect Siberia. At length spring returned with 
its flowers, and converted our Siberia into an uncultivated Eden, rich in all the ma- 
jestic charms of sublime scenery and primeval beauty and fertility. If ever the fond 
illusions of poets and philosophers, that Atlantis, that new Arcadia, that safe and 
serene Utopia, where ideal quiet and happiness have so often charmed theory, if ever 
this dream of social bliss, in some new planted region is to be realized, this nnrivaled 
scene of grandeur and fertility bids fairest to be the- place of its abode. Here the 
climate is serene and equal, the vigorous winters that brace the frame and call forth 
the power of mind and bod}- to prepare for its approach are succeeded by a spring so 
rapid, the exuberance of vernal bloom bursts forth so suddenly after disappearance 
of those deep snows which cherish and fructify the earth, that the change seems like 
a magical delusion. " 

The plant of the vStandard Oil Co. 's Shook factory, the Diamond Match Factory, 
the Oswego Starch Factory, and the Oswego Shade Cloth Company are among the 
largest institutions of their kind in the world. Malt, boilers and engines are manu- 
factured in large quantities, and shipped to all parts of the globe. Millions of feet of 
Canadian lumber are received during the season of navigation. A new electric road 
has been constructed from the heart of the city to a beautiful summer retreat, three 
miles west, running on the lake side of the boulevard ; the view, as the summit of the 
boulevard hill is reached, and the descent begins, baffles description.

Owego is the capital of Tioga County. It is a pretty town with extensive agri- 
cultural interests, and many dairies and cheese factories. The Susquehanna River 
and several creeks flowing through the town furnish motive power for a number of 
manufactories and mills. It has churches of all denominations, many schools, and 
several bright newspapers. Owego was once the home of N. P. Willis, the poet, who 
for a quarter of a ceuturj', drew in from the romantic hills and valleys surrounding 
the town, much of the inspiration which made his verses famous the world over. 

One mile from station is situated the well-known old private retreat for the 
insane and nervous, Glenmary, where so many of the afflicted have been restored to 
health and usefulness.

In all probability nature bas been more lavish with her gifts in the vicinity of 
Ithaca than in any other one place in the Empire State. A great lake, a magnificent 
region where health and happiness abide, and where the eyes of mankind can feast 
imtil the soul is content and the mind is benumbed with bewilderment. 

Ithaca has been called the •" region of cascades," and the name is certainly 
appropriate to the surroundings. It would seem as though the hand of nature has 
busied itself to an unusual extent in carving out of the rocks the irregular crevices 
through which the silvery streams of crystal water plunge and turn until they reach 
their natural level. In addition may be found a great many ravines which have a 
peculiar interest attached to them. The delightful works of nature seem to partake 
of a form of phenomena, and are all the more interesting on that account. There are 
96 falls b}- actual count which vary in height from 5 to 340 feet. One mile from the 
village is Ithaca Falls, 160 feet high, or 7 feet less than Niagara. The width of the 
fall is 150 feet. Nine miles from Ithaca are the world-famed Taughannock Falls, that 
glory in being 48 feet higher than Niagara. 

All the falls are not directly within the town boundry, bnt there are fifteen 
close by, the height of each of which is over 100 feet. It is generally conceded that 
Cascadilla and Fall Creeks furnish the most enchanting of all the waterfall scenery. 
Taughannock Falls is the highest in the State, being 215 feet, while the rock rises 
145 feet above it. The falls and surrounding scenery are almost unapproached for 
magnificence. 

Ithaca is situated at the head of Cayuga Lake, and has a population of 12,000. 
It is principally famous as the seat of Cornell University, founded by Ezra Cornell, 
whose idea is best expressed by his own words : " I would found an institution where 
any person can find instruction in any study." The University has turned out many 
a learned scholar, and is too well known to reqtiire a detailed description. 

Cayuga Lake is one of the finest inland lakes that makes Central New York so 
famous as a summer resort. It is forty miles long and lies between high hills that 
stretch along its entire length, and far beyond to the south. It is, also, one of the 
most magnificent lakes in this country, clear and of great depth, and surrounded 
w'ith the most entrancing scenery. Lake fishing, which is always a delightful pas- 
time, is here enjoyed every season by many enthusiastic fishermen who invariablv 
catch sufficient lake trout, bass, etc., to convince them that old Cayuga Lake is the 
veritable INIecca of anglers.

Here are gathered about 42,500 people, among whom are many of State and 
national reputation. The streets are shaded by grand old trees ; the homes are com- 
fortable and attractive, and well-kept lawns on every side are evidences of thrift and 
culture. 

Elmirais a city of churches ; among the most notable of all the denominations is 
the Congregational Park Church, under the pastorship of the Rev. Thos. K. Beecher. 
The First Baptist Church is also new, and of modern architecture. 

The New York State Reformatory, situated on a broad plateau at the foot of the 
western hills, is of much interest as illustrative of real reformation among the younger 
class of criminals. In itself, both in architecture and location, it is a striking build- 
ing, and well repays one for a few hours' visit.

Of parks there are four. The most important is " Eldridge Park," in the 
northern portion of the city. This contains about do acres, has a natural lake of 
crystal w^ater, half a mile in circumference, and many miles of fine drives and walks. 
It also has pavilions, summer houses, a bear pit, and all the requisites of first-class 
pleasure grounds, which it is, not only for the people of Elmira, but also for those of 
many cities in the surrounding country. During the season of 1895 over 100,000 
excursionists visited the various parks of Elmira. 

Elmira Heights, a suberb of Elmira, is a bustling industrial town of 5,000 inhab- 
itants engaged in the manufacture of window glass, bridges, bicycles, cotton goods 
and a dozen other things. All street car lines give transfers to Elmira Heights. 

Here are about 20 miles of electric car roads running to and fro from all parts, as 
well as to the thriving village of Ilorseheads, six miles north. 

In the northwestern part of the city is the Elmira College for Women. This 
educational institution is among the first in the land. Its location is high and healthy,

and its grounds spacious. On East Hill, at an elevation of 200 feet, stands the 
Gleason vSanitarium, where invalids may find skilled medical care, or the pleasure 
seeker a quiet summer home. 

The charming valley, at this point, is largely devoted to the culture of tobacco, 
and large crops are annually raised ; as are also vegetables of the finest quality. The 
"hill country " is given up to dairies and the quality of their butter is gaining an 
enviable reputation.

with a succession of rapids and long, still pools, known as "The Eddys." Above 
the city are some particularly fine bits of scenery, as the hills are verv abrupt and 
wooded to the water's edge. Splendid camping grounds aie to be found, near which 
run good springs of clear water, and much of this best of sunnner pastime is indulged 
in along the picturesque banks. Black bass fishing is also good. A fair number of 
manufactories are located here, ard various industries are represented. Much 
material is shipped annually to all points of the surrounding countr}.

tion of 5,000 people, and as the country seat of Steuben, one of the largest counties in 
the State, it attracts hundreds of strangers every day, either on business or pleasure. 
The vState Soldiers' Home at Bath is a model institution of which not only the State 
but the nation is justly proud. Here 1,500 old heroes are well cared for. The build- 
ings and grounds are splendidly arrranged for the purpose and are beautiful in design 
and proportion. The Soldiers' Home band, the dress parade, and the veterans them- 
selves are attractions that draw thousands of people to Bath. 

No better fishing can be found in the State than in the surrounding little lakes 
and cold water streams. It is the center of a sportsman's paradise. At Bath all 
trains stop at the model dining rooms for lunch, and all passengers to Hammonds- 
port and Lake Keuka make connection here with the B. & H. Railroad at Union 
Station. 

Reports from the Fish Commissioners of the States of New York, Pennsylvania 
and New Jersey for 1894 and i895show that all streams bordering on the Lackawanna 
have been heavily stocked with all kinds of game and edible fish. No railroad in the 
world has so many trout streams along its course as the Lackawanna.

some water. Wayland excells in all these. The Portland Cement Company has a 
large factory here, which gives the town just enough life to make it agreeable. 
Passengers make direct connection here for Hornellsville, via Central New York and 
Western Railroad.

IN THE GENESEE VALLEY. 

It is doubtful if the Empire State, famous for the number of its fertile vallej-s, can 
offer any other that presents so many charming characteristics of the Genesee. It is 
a series of magnificent farms, as fertile as any the world produces ; it possesses wind- 
ing rivers and rapid streams that dance in and out of patches of woodland, meeting 
each other in unexpected ways. The fruit alone that is grown annually in this valley 
is sufficient to supply almost all the markets of the State ; and, as a grain-growing 
country, it produces more for its size than any other valley in the world. In the 
spring the air is heavy with the odor of blossoms, and in the fall the red and golden 
fruit hangs in clusters in the orchard.

Excursion ticket, $13.30. 

The approach to Dansville, from either direction, is through a country abounding 
in picturesque scenery, which apparently culminates in the surroundings of this hill- 
encircled town. Lying 400 feet below the railroad, it is enclosed on three sides by an 
ampitheatre of hills which, on either hand, stretch far away and are lost on the dis-

tant horizon. Like a vast living panorama, hundreds of square miles of valley and 
hill are spread out before the traveler, who is both surprised and delighted with the 
beauty of a picture of surpassing loveliness, rarely equalled in this or any foreign 
land. Nature is here more gently picturesque than rugged or grand. Although the 
hills rise upwards of a thousand feet, they are dotted almost to their summits with 
farms, vineyards and grain fields, which alternate with masses of evergreen and 
stretches of timber laud. 

On nearer acquaintance many hidden attractions are discovered by the artist and 
the lover of the beautiful — wild, rocky ravines, with precipitous sides and crystal cas- 
cades, deep gorges set with pile and hemlock, numerous mountain streams and tan- 
gled undergrowth, where the silence of the forest is broken only by the song of the 
bird or the whirr of the partridge. Stony Brook Glen, similar in its rocky formation 
and waterfalls to Watkins Glen, a favorite resort, is two miles from the town ; winding 
roads lead over the hills in every direction, and provide charming walks and drives 
without number. On the eastern slopes are vineyards, which though now covering 
hundreds of acres, are increasing yearly. This, in itself, speaks volumes for the 
healthfulness of the climate, for where grapes thrive miasmatic conditions are un- 
known. In the fertile garden valley a deep alluvial deposit furnishes rich soil for 
raising nursery stock — the chief industry of the town — in which many have invested 
capital ; and so favorable are conditions of growth that in two years trees attain a 
size and strength that require three years in other nurserj^ centres. This is the home 
of the famous Genesee white winter wheat, so successfully raised here in large 
quantities, and the grain fields at every season form an attractive feature of the 
landscape. 

The region within which Dansville is situated is salubrious. It is exempt from 
malaria, and the vital statistics justify its claim to favorable distinction in respect to 
diseases caused or prolonged by environment. This is probably due to its elevation 
above sea-level, swift running streams, dry, porous soil, evergreen forest growth, a 
climate equable and genial ou account of its altitude, and more especially to the ex- 
ceptional dryness and purity of the air. The Meterological Bureau Reports, and 
the weather maps of the Smithsonian Institute show that the narrow strip of West- 
tern New York State, forming the northerly divide of the Alleghaney chain draining 
into L,ake Ontario, enjoying much less humidity than the surrounding country; indeed 
not until one approaches the pine forests of Northern Michigan, or the equally inhos- 
pitably dry plains west of the Mississippi River, can there be found any such low av- 
erage. It isonl}' this small section, within a region of twelve hundred miles of the 
Atlantic coast line, that this can be said. These combined influences make it a de- 
sirable jilace of residence or resort. And here on the eastern hill-slope, standing as a 
vision of hope and promise to thousands, is the Jackson Sanatorium, one of the largest 
and most complete health institution in the world. Many are attracted yearly to 
this favored spot, not less by nature's ample provision of pure air and beautiful scen- 
ery than by the opportunities afforded for recovery and recuperation under the care 
of skilled physicians. 

The mountain spring which supplies the Jackson Sanatorium with water ranks as 
one of the most famous among home and foreign spas. Danville has a population of 
over 4,000; two railroads, gas and electric lighting, telegraph and telephone, eight 
mails daily, eight churches, a union school, an eflicient fire department, good water 
power, chair, broom-handle, fruit-basket and reaper factories, extensive flour and 
health-food interests, planing and foundry plants, paper and pulp mills, three weekly 
newspapers and the monthly jou-uals.

No change of cars is required between New York and Dausville, and the trip may 
be made in 9 hours. Time from Buffalo, two hours. Pullman cars are connected 
with all trains. 

Those who have had the good opportunity to ride over the Lackawanna road by 
daylight, and are not prejudiced, agree that the view of the Genesee Valley ; as seen 
from a car window, is not rivalled by any other landscape in this country. A glimpse 
of the valley is obtained at

MOUNT MORRIS. Altitude, 583/1. 

350.52 miles from New York : Single ticket, |8.i8; Special ticket, $7.00. 

This delightful village is situated on a tableland, and commands an uninterrupted 
view of the valley. To the west may be seen the High Banks, noted in history for 
the ravages of the red men whom Geneial Sullivan was at one time commissioned to 
exterminate. The railroad crosses the Genesee River here. Mount Morris is a fam- 
ous resort of the inhabitants of Buffalo, and in summer they collect here in great 
numbers. A huntsman's club has been formed, and is conducted with regulations 
similar to the Meadowbrook and other kindred clubs. The periodical "runs" are 
among the most exciting scenes that enter into the season's gayeties, 

Bass fishing in the Genesee River is excellent, and attracts many. From Mount 
Morris to Geneseo, the capital of Livingston County, the drives over excellent roads 
are pleasing. This feature, above all the other worthy considerations, forms a decided 
attraction. 

Extensive salt works are established here, and they form a principal feature of 
its commerce. At Mount Morris connection is made with Western New York and 
Pennsvlvania.

salt is taken out in enormous quantities. The amount of labor distributed can be 
imagined, when the figures relating to the out-put foot up to 800 tons per day. The

At East Buffalo are located the extensive car shops of this railroad, where new 
cars are constructed and old cars rebuilt to be re-cominissioned. The enormous coal 
chutes belonging to the Company are one mile long and have a storage capacity of 
150,000 tons. A large yard and cattle pen are also among the Company's possessions 
at East Buffalo. 

A busy little place called Depew, after Chauncey M. Depew, Esq., is close by, 
and promises to become famous as the greatest car manufacturing town in the United 
States. 

BUFFALO. Altitude, 582/1. 

412.94 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $9.25 ; Special ticket, $8.00. 

This great city is the terminus of the road. It is the largest railroad centre in the 
State, and among the greatest of the entire nation. It has been said that a person 
can start at a given point in the large yards, and walk a hundred miles on the tops of 
freight cars. No exaggeration is indulged in, however, when the statement is made 
that cars from every railroad of any importance in the land are constantly repre- 
sented on some one of the vast network of rails laid within the city limits. 

Buffalo plays an active part as a distributing point for grain and lumber, the lat- 
ter trade coming largely from Canada. The wharves along Lake Erie present a busy 
aspect at all times, and a day can be well spent among the shipping. 

The wealth of the city is one of its most startling features, and millionaires are 
not by any means a rarity. The population aggregates about 265,000, which enables 
Buffalo to rank as the third city in the State. 

With a water front of two and a half miles on Lake Erie, as well as on the Niag- 
ara River, and its location at the foot of the chain of great lakes, the reason why it 
plays such an active part in the commercial interests of the country is apparent. 

The climate, on account of the influence of the lake winds, is naturally salubrious 
in summer. On the whole the streets are broad, well paved and well lighted, and the 
city enjoys a good sewerage system. Large and stately shade trees give Buffalo a 
pretty appearance, and specially delightful spots are the numerous parks and squares 
for which the city is noted. The public squares are named Franklin, Niagara, Pros- 
pect, Johnsons, Lafayette, and the Terrace. They were designed and laid out by 
Frederic Law Olmstead, who partly acquired his fame by the skill in forestry he dis- 
played in Central Park, New York City. 

The number of public buildings and charitable institutions, and the beauty and 
cost of their erection, is a source of pride with the Buffalonians. As to private resi- 
dences, the city can boast of as many of great cost and beauty as any of its size in the 
United States, and as for hotels, there are many, "The Niagara" being one of 
the finest. 

Passengers for Niagara Falls and points west change cars here. Connections are 
made with all other roads with little or no inconvience.

NOVA SCOTIA, CAPE BRETON AND PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND, 

REACHED BY THE CANADA, ATLANTIC AND PLANT 

STEAMSHIP LINE. 




■pACH successive summer, Americau summer resort 
^-* tourists are discovering in quantities what hundreds of 
them have found out individually — the scenic beauties and 
the charming summer social life of Nova Scotia, Cape 
Breton and Prince Edward Island ; the cooling breezes, the 
fine English roads, which delight the eye of the cyclist, the 
numerous streams teeming with fish, and woods and fields 
full of game, to the joy of the angler and hunter, and, in 
fact, every environment necessary to a perfect summer-resort 
region. Equally enjoyable is the sea trip by which these 
countries are reached. During the winter season the travel 

is naturally light, and only one sailing weekly is necessary; 

biit when the summer sun bursts forth in all its warmth, the -^5^ 

Canada, Atlantic and Plant Steamship Line increases the 

service to three ships weekly, and the fast steel passenger 

steamships of this line leave Boston crowded with tourists 

happy in the thought that, with only one night at sea, a 

foreign land is reached. The ships of this line were especi- 
ally constructed for this service, being of modern design 

and built of steel, supplied with electricity throughout and 

with every convenience. 

Two of the ships weekly ply between Boston and Halifax, 

while the third, after touching at Halifax, calls at Port 

Hawkesbury, Cape Breton, proceeding thence to Charlotte- 
town, Prince Edward Island.

The shores of Nova Scotia, which are in view from the decks of the ships some 
time before Halifax is. reached, are likened to those of Norway, being indented with 

innumerable deep harbors, inlets and many rocky 
promontories and sea-swept ledges. Its summer 
climate is as soft as that of Southern Italy in May. 
Malaria is a stranger, and hay fever is unknown. 
Halifax may be justly tertned the British stronghold 
of North America, as it is the headquarters of a large 
number of British troops and the Naval rendezvous 
of the British North Atlantic and West Indies 
squadrons. It is a busy, prosperous city, substantially 
built, and of characteristics decidedly foreign. The 
public gardens are said to be the finest in the world. 
The visitor to the Provinces should not fail to 
.spend a portion of his time on Cape Breton, making 
side trips to the Bras d'Or lakes and other points of 
interest on this fascinating island. 

Charlottetown is the terminus of the Canada, 
Atlantic and Plant Line. Prince Edward Island is notable as a health spot, sur- 
rounded as it is by ocean and strait, whose waters have broken the shore line into 
numberless beautiful bays and estuaries. Its breezes are nothing but pure ones, 
bearing all the healthful tonic and ozone of old ocean itself, and its climate is 
delightful, free from penetrating fogs and excessive heat. It enjoys the distinction 
of being the most thoroughly cultivated ter- 
ritory on this side of the Atlantic, and is one 
great garden from end to end. 

Bicycles are carried free by this line, and 
the sailing hour of one of these ships in the 
summer sees scoresof devotees of the wheel, 
with more bicycles than other baggage. It 
is an inexpensive trip, the rates for passage 
and for meals being very low, while the 
service and cuisine, as on all Plant Steam- 
ships, are the best that could be desired. 

Beautifully illustrated matter descriptive of the Maritime Provinces is issued by 
the Canada Atlantic and Plant Steamship Line. Four cents in stamps enclosed to J. J. 
Farnsworth, Eastern Passenger Agent, 261 Broadway, New York ; or Edward Sands, 
Asst. Gen. Passenger Agent, 290 Washington Street, Boston, will secure a copy of 
their book " Acadia and Thereabouts." 

A vacation in Acadia will never be regretted.

The Favorite Spring 
Summer and 
Autumn Resort. 




DELAWARE WATER GAP, MONROE CO., Penna. 

The "Kittatinny," open iTom May ist to November, hardly needs introduction to 
people familiar with the beautiful Delaware Valley. 

It is the pioneer of the resort hotels of the State, and enjoys the present distinction of 
being one of the best known and most fortunate in beauty of location. From a quaint moun- 
tain inn of half a centuiy ago, the Kittatinny has grown continuously and so added to its 
appointment with its ever-increasing popularity that to-day it is the largest and one of the 
best hotels on the Delaware, receiving 350 guests and possessmg a fame as wide as that of the 
storied Water Gap itself. 

The house stands on a smooth plateau two hundred feet above the river, with the perfect 
picture of the river and the towering mountains that form the " Gap " on the one hand, and a 
wealth of natural beauty the background on the other. 

One hundred and fifty acres or private grounds form a park, with the lakes and mountain 
streams, rustic patiis leading to every point of interest, and rustic structural to add to its eftect. 

Within the hotel the appointments are complete, and suggestive in many details of the 
delightful outing life of which this is the centre. The parlors, reception and reading rooms, 
office, corridors and bed-rooms are large, airy and tastefully furnished. A number of the bed- 
rooms are en suite with bath and private balconies. 

The dining-room, occupying the first floor of the main building, recently built, seats 
three hundred. The cuisine is in charge of an experienced chef. An unlimited supply of 
purest water from mountain springs is furnished in each, both hot and cold. 

Other appointments include hydraulic elevator, gas, electric bells, billiard room, a well 
equipped livery, and an excellent orchestra. 

The hotel is heated throughout by steam for the comfort of those desiring to come out 
in the early spring, or remaining through the fall.

ALEXANDRIA BAV, N. Y. 
THE THOUSAND ISLANDS. 



JUST where the l^hie waters of Lake Onta- 
rio find their outlet between Cape Vin- 
cent, N. Y. , and Kingston, Can., the 
Thousand Islands of the St. Lawrence have 
their beginning, extending some forty miles 
down the river in picturescjue groups, and 
forming in their entirety one of the loveliest 
and most varied fishing regions in the world. 

It is now hardly more than a dozen years 
since the Thousand Islands began to attract 
■widespread attention, yet the visitor will 
find along the route of the steamer, which 
bears him down the crystal current, numbers 
of large hotels, and hundreds of costly and 
palatial summer homes, which increase in 
numbers annually. 

The tourist portion of the Thousand 
Islands begins, practically speaking, at 
Clayton, the terminus of the Rome, Water- 
town & Ogdensburg Railroad. From this 
point steamers ply to Alexandria Bay, touch- 
ing at intermediate points. The lirst landing 
is made at Round Island. This is a promi- 
nent cottage community. It is non-sectarian, 
and numbers among its permanent summer 
residents many prominent people from the 
large cities. 

Thousand Island Park, a Methodistic com- 
munity, is two miles below, and also has its 
liotel and numerous cottages, as well as a 
large "tabernacle." 

Central Park is prettily located midway 
down the American channel. 

About ten miles below Clayton, Alexan- 
dria Bay is located. In the immediate vicin- 
ity are many of the most costly and beau- 
tiful sununer villas. The "Bay" is the 
focus of a large summer travel, steamers 
coming and going constantly. 

Near Alexandria Bay, and like that village, 
also upon the mainland, is Edgewood Park, 
chiefly occupied by Cleveland families ; and 
one mile distant is Westminster Park, which 
has a good hotel and Presbyterian tenden- 
cies. 

The fishing at the Thousand Islands will 
always be its chief charm with the general 
visitor, and, thanks to the protection of re- 
cently enacted State laws and the activity 
of the Anglers' Association, the fishing is 
always improving. Boatmen, with safe and 
natty St. Lawrence skiffs, the most beautiful 
of all water craft, may be engaged at any of 
the hotels bv the dav or week. 



Dailv excursions are made among the 
islands' from all the hotels, upon swift and 
roomy steamboats.

ASHEVILLE, N. C. 

In the centre of a region poetically desig- 
nated as "The Land of the Sky," is Ashe- 
ville, N. C. 

In Western North Carolina, between the 
Blue Ridge on the east and the AUeghanies 
on the west, lies this beautiful valley. It is a 
land of bright skies, incomparable climate, 
and picturesque scenery, whose praises have 
been sung by poets and whose beauties of 
stream, valley and mountain height have 
furnished subject and inspiration to the 
sketcher's hand. The city is situated in the 
heart of the mountains, 2,300 feet above the 
level of the tide. Romantic scener\^ sur- 
rounds the town on every side, and the 
approach to it from either direction leads 
through a panorama of enchanting views. 
On the one hand there rises the beautiful 
Blue Ridge ; on the other, the picturesqtie 
AUeghanies ; at their feet flow the clear 
waters of the French Broad. 

There is scarcely a more beautiful valley 
than this, and certainly none more rich in 
all thatwotild attract health-seeker, lounger, 
invalid or dreamer. The climate is superb.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. 

Atlantic City claims for itself to be the 
most popular resort in this country — an all- 
year-round health-restoring and pleasure- 
giving place, unsurpassed in the plenitude 
of its accommodations 

Although immediately on the beach (many 
hottses being but a few feet from the surf), it 
is a city of ten thousand inhabitants, which, 
at the height of the summer season, is in- 
creased to a hundred thousand. 

In .summer, bathing, fishing, driving, boat- 
ing, and like sea-shore divertisements are its 
offerings to the well who go there for a rest 
and change from the monotony of every-day 
affairs. 

For the invalid there is ozone-freighted 
air breezes, tempered bj^ jottrneys over thou- 
sands of miles of ocean, cool, comfortable 
nights for repose, and all the facilities 
enjoyed in cities of the larger size. 

Fine aventies, beautiful cottages, magnifi- 
cently appointed hotels, .street cars, electric 
lights, a perfect sewerage, and first-class

drinking water, brought from the mainland. 

Prominent as it is, as a summer resort, it is 
hardly less so as a winter sanitarium — many 
of its hotels being filled to their utmost. 

It lays claim to being only sixty miles 
from the gulf stream, the influence of which 
is directly attested by its temperature, being 
several degrees higher in winter than cities 
sixty miles inland.

BARNEGAT CIT?, N. J. 

Barnegat is one of the oldest and most cele- 
brated settlements on the Jersey coast, and 
many are the traditions that cluster about its 
shores, so full of peril to sailors. The very 
name means "dangerous breakers," and 
many an old sailor would testify to the fit- 
ness of the appellation. 

The town, located near the shores of Bar- 
negat Bay, is the Metropolis of the fishing- 
ground.s of New Jersey. The bay and inlet 
are the favorite haunts of bluefish, as well as 
the home of every other species native to the 
waters of that section. 

In addition to its fishing resources, oysters 
are plentiful, and 'wild fowl are found in 
great abundance. 

Yachts, tackle and sportsmen's supplies 
may be obtained from the seafaring people, 
of which the population is largely composed.

CHAUTAUQUA LAKE, N. Y. 

This magnificent sheet of water is situated 
on a table land 1,400 feet above the sea level, 
and enjoys the distinction of being the high- 
est navigable inland sea on the continent. 
Situated in Western New York in the county 
of Chautauqua, it is eighteen miles long and 
ranges from one to five miles in width. 



In many respects this lake is the most 
magnificent in this country. Aside from its 
altitude, the scenery along its shores is of 
such a beautiful character that artists find 
fresh snatches to paint each recurring season. 
The water is deep and transparent, and as 
pure as crystal. No wonder, then, that it 
should abound in fine game fish, and yearlj' 
attract anglers to its shore. The air is 
always cool and invigorating, and here 
malaria is absolutely unknown. The boat- 
ing and bathing are stiperb, and the drives 
along the shores of the lake and back in the 
hills are unsurpassed, and scarcely to be 
equalled anywhere. These features have 
combined to draw admiring thousands of 
intellectual holiday-seekers here every sum- 
mer, and to establish several large well- 
appointed hotels. 

The class of people that patronize Chau- 
tauqua are lovers of the beautiftil in nattire, 
who appreciate all that the Creator has 
bestowed upon it, and know how to get 
pleasure out of every daylight moment, and 
invigorating and restful sleep out of the 
calm, cool nights. 

A fleet of steamers ply on the lake daily, 
and carry excursionists all around it. The 
scene on the water in the daytime, and for

that matter after moondawn, is one of ani- 
mation. Steam yachts, launches, row boats 
and shells are darting in all directions, and 
the " lone fisherman " sits in quiet contem- 
plation, awaiting the "tug" of a bass or 
pickerel. In the fall the duck shooting 
about the coves and nooks is excellent, and 
gunners flock there with the same regularity 
as the wild fowl. 

The Chautauqua Assembly, organized in 
1874, holds its meetings every July and 
August. The purpose of the enterprise is to 
combine the recreations of a summer resort 
with intellectual culture and improvement. 
The Assembly is a great educational institu- 
tion that attracts teachers of all grades here, 
both for information and to commune about 
their fraternal interests, and this has proved 
itself one of the most prominent features of 
attraction. The Assembly grounds are at 
Point Chautauqua. To lovers of gayety, 
Lakewood, a few miles distant, offers every 
opportunity. And among many of the most 
beautiful drives in this neighborhood, is 
from Jamestown to Mayville ; and, as for 
aquatic attractions, a sail on the lake is a 
beautiful sight that awaits the person who 
will spend the time in steaming from James- 
town through the narrows.

COTTAGE CITY (Martha's Vineyard), 
MASS. 

Cottage City developed into a summer 
resort through the ministrations of the 
Methodists. Captivated by the beauty and 
healthfulness of the location, they built an 
enormous tabernacle for public worship and 
set up their tents around it. Presently the 
tents became cottages, and, as the population 
increased, a large summer town was built, 
which has attracted many visitors other than 
those who came to worship. 

The shores of Martha's Vineyard, on 
which Cottage City is located, are exceed- 



CRA'WFOED HOUSE, N. H. (WHITE 
MOUNTAINS.) 

The Crawford House is situated on a 
plateau 2,000 feet above the sea, and com- 
mands a magnificent view of Mt. Washing- 
ton (6,293 feet), and Mt. Monroe (5,349 feet). 
The bridle path up Mt. Washington passes 
over Mounts Pleasant, Monroe, Franklin 
and Clinton, and is said to afford finer views 
than any other route. 

Within easy reach of the Crawford House 
are, the Notch, a huge chasm in the moun- 
tains, which rises 2,000 feet on either side ; 
Silver Cascade and Sylvan Glade Cataract, 
between which it is hard to award the pahn; 
and Mount Willard, commanding a view 
down the Notch.

GENEVA, N. Y. (SENECA LAKE.) 

The pretty town of Geneva, with a popu-

shores of Seneca Lake. It is celebrated as 
well for its schools and churches, as for the 
fertility and beauty of the surrounding 
country. It was the principal seat of the 
Senecas, and there still remains in the 
vicinity an ancient fortification erected by 
the "mound builders," as well as an old 
Indian cemetery, which has not as yet been 
desecrated by the plow. The climate of this 
section is fine, and the means of living 
abundant. The mineral springs near by are 
highly esteemed for their health restoring 
properties. 

Seneca Lake (thirty-six miles by two) is 
one of the largest and most beautiful in New 
York State.

HAMMONDSPORT, N. Y.

LAKE KEUKA, STEUBEN COUNTY, N. Y. 

The Delaware, Lackawanna & Western 
Railroad connects at Bath with the Bath & 
Hammondsport Railroad, and a ride through 
the far-famed Pleasant Valley brings the 
traveler to Hamniodsport, N. Y., at the 
head of Lake Keuka. 

Here nestled among the vine-clad hills of 
Yates and Steuben Counties, lies Lake Keu- 
ka, " The Queen of Lakes," the most beau- 
tiful of the smaller lakes in America. In a 
country whose picturesqueness is far-famed, 
in the midst of scenery for which western 
New York is noted, this gem of inland 
waters has rapidly increased in fame and 
popularity. The quiet beauty of its waters, 
the novelty of its scenery, the salubrity of 
its atmosphere have gradually extended its 
name until to-day Lake Keuka is recognized 
as one of the most famous resorts in New 
York State. It is the land of health and 
recreation. No swamp land or malaria is 
found, no mosquitos are bred in the dry 
healthy air, and hay-fever is unknown. 

Sailing, rowing, fishing and bathing are 
pastimes with which one wiles away the 
summer hours. From all parts of the coun- 
try enthusiastic fishermen come to lure 
from the depths the fish which everj'where 
abound. The following endorsement from 



140 



DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA * WESTERN R. R. 






m 



>> 







SeLh Greeu, the late veteran fisherniau and 
Uuited States Fish Commissioner, speaks for 
itself: 

" I think Lake Keuka unsurpassed by any 
waters in America as a fishing resort. The 
purity of the water, the large amount offish 
food contained in the Lake, tend to put the 
fish in the finest condition for the table, and 
render them ver^- strong and gamey when 
on the hook and line. During one of my 
sojourns in August, I took by hook and line 
19 salmon trout weighing 113 pounds, and 
one day in October, 33 black bass, weighing 
106 pounds." 

The Lake is 22 miles long, divided about 
midway by a long bold promontory extending 
southward into its waters and terminating 
in "Bluff Point," one of the notable land- 
marks of this section, from whose lofty sum- 
mits seven counties can be seen. Lake 
Keuka is 780 feet above sea level (and over 
270 feet above its larger neighbor " Seneca " 
Lake, at the head of which is the famous 
Watkins Glen), and its shores and lofty 
hills remind the traveler of the banks 
of the River Rhine, where the wooded 
hills are covered for miles with vineyards. 
The precipitous sides of the Lake for 
miles are covered with farm houses, wood- 
land glens and vineyards, while its water's 
edge is dotted with hotels and cottages, 
affording a panorama of unceasing beauty 
and interest to the tourist when viewed from 
the deck of the passing steamer. 

The hotels of Lake Keuka are "Grove 
Springs," "Keuka," "Gibson's," and while 
at the head of the Lake is the " Fairchild 
House." All the hotels have spacious, cool 
rooms, broad verandas, and handsome sur- 
roundings of groves and grassy lawns, and 
connected with each, besides the dancing 
pavilions, bath houses, etc., are many cot- 
tages which are rented to families and par- 
ties. 

Keuka Park, on the west shore of the 
Lake, four miles from Penn Yan, is a pro- 
jecting circle of land rising gently from the 
water's edge, containing 160 acres, 40 acres 
of grove and 170 rods water frontage. Here 
are the large buildings of Keuka College, 
dozens of commodious cottages, and the 
College Boarding Hall, open to summer 
guests, the great ampitheatre and assembly 
pavilion, where thousands gather every 
summer to attend lectures, concerts and 
religious convocations, and delightful homes 
near where boarders are entertained. The 
streets are capital for wheelmen and ample 
facilities for boating and fishing supplied. 
Frequent mails, a money order P. O., 
steamers and stages, and an electric R. R. 
to Penn Yan, are among the conveniences 
of the Park. 

Lake Keuka's grapes have a national 
reputation, while its champagnes are only 
rivalled by those of foreign vintages. Over 
20,000 tons of grapes are annually grown, and

many million gallons of still wines and bot- 
tles of champagne are produced. The wine 
cellars are well worth coming miles to see, 
and "the hospitality extended to the visitor 
is as broad as the sky." 

The Germania Wine Cellars are situated 
in the beautiful and far-famed Pleasant 
Valley, between Hammondsport and Rheims. 
The cellars are prominently situated on the 
side of the hill with beautiful and extensive 
vineyards surrounding them. There are 
from lo.ooo to 15,000 acres of fine vineyards 
in this great belt, from which the Germania 
cellars select the best and finest quality of 
grapes suitable for making their different 
wines. The grapes are picked and selected 
with great care, and every rotten and imper- 
pect grape is carefully removed before going 
to the press to be made into wine. 

The grapes picked from this vineyard re- 
ceived the highest award at the late World's 
Columbian Exposition, as being the finest 
table and wine grapes produced in America. 
The award received by this cellar for cham- 
pagne has been claimed by many competing 
wine houses. 

Their Imperial Sec. Champagne is well 
known, and can be found in all the leading 
wine houses in all the large cities of the 
United States. When asking your dealer 
for their champagne see that the name 
Germania Wine Cellars is on the label as it 
is a guarantee that the champagne is a pure 
wine, unadulterated, fermented by natural 
French process in the bottle. It takes from 
three to four years to perfect the wine. The 
Germania cellars save no expense or trouble 
in keeping up their goods to the standard 
and quality. This has been the secret of their 
great success in business ever since their 
modest beginning in the business, in the 
early history of wine culture in America. 
See Illustration on page 141. 

The steamboat service upon the Lake is 
unexcelled. The Lake Keuka Navigation 
Company recently added to its fleet the 
steamer " Mary Bell," 150 feet long, built of 
steel, and designed through her light draft 
and powerful machinery to make the dis- 
tance of 22 miles between Hammondsport 
and Penn Yan in about one hour. She has 
triple expansion engines, two boilers and 
twin screws, and capacity of accommodating 
1,000 passengers. In addition to the "Mary 
Bell," the steamers of The Lake Keuka 
Navigation Company are the "Halsey," 
"Urbana," "Holmes," "West Branch," 
and "Lulu," and hardly an hour passes but 
that the summer sojourner upon the lake 
can, if he will, take a boat to some point of 
interest or "make train connections." 
Round trip from Hammondsport to Penn 
Yan, fifty cents. 

Lake Keuka is nicely located for little ex- 
cursion trips during one's outing. Niagara 



Falls is but three hours ride via the Dela- 
ware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad, while 
Watkin's Glen is but twenty miles distant. 
The New York State Soldiers' and Sailors' 
Home at Bath is reached in thirty minutes, 
and the beautiful drives along Lake Keuka's 
shores touch picturesque little hamlets, 
while the Lake and surrounding country, 
as viewed by a drive along the brow of its 
hills present a panorama unrivalled. 

Those wishing a more detailed description 
of Lake Keuka and its environments should 
address The Lake Keuka Navigation Com- 
pany, Hammondsport, N. Y., for their illus- 
trated book, which will be mailed free.

LURAY CAVERNS, VA. 

Those who have visited these wonderful 
and reeently discovered subterranean cav- 
erns testify that they form wonderful ex- 
amples of nature's handiwork. Words can- 
not adequately describe them ; they must 
he studied to be thoroughly realized. The 
vestibule of this subterranean mansion is 
attained by descending the stone steps of 
the cave, and once there the first sensation 
experienced by the visitor is one of awe, at 
the fearful stillness that reigns supreme, and 
this is in no way enlivened bj' the grotesque 
forms surrounding. Once mastered, how- 
ever, these emotions turn to wonder. From 
an entrance hall, elaborate with stalacite 
decoration, numerous avenues lead into un- 
known depths. One of the corridors leads to 
the Fish Market, or rather to a cave which, 
to all appearances, is hung with row upon 
row of fish, so natural is the form of the 
pendants from above. The crystal lake with 
its unruffled ice-cold surface; the vegetable 
garden with ever erratic, but none the less 
vegetable like hangings. Numerous cham- 
bers, every one known from a striking resem- 
blance to too easily recognized objects, and 
each filled with the quaint subterranean 
creations are connected one to the other by 
lanes, which appear as though covered by 
some giant hand ; grottoes elaborated with 
the richest ornamentation ; sparkling water- 
falls, and figures and forms of indefinite 
shape inspire emotions of wonder, which 
grow with each new revelation. Here we 
find a Cathedral, with its ever noiseless 
organ ; a hall of giants relieved by fluted 
columns and arches innumerable. A plateau- 
like spot, commonly known as the Elfin 
Ramble, together with Hades, Horey's Hall 
and Pluto's Chasm, and a variety of other 
equally fine attractions form but a limit to 
the marvelous sights these caverns contain. 
Here, nature has fashioned itself in its own 
erratic style. Nothing in the way of artificial 
adornment has been done here by man. 
These caves may be examined without much 
diflSculty, as the obstructions are few, and 
may be easily surmounted by the anxious 
and ever-daring explorer.

MAUCH CHUNK, PA. 

Matich Chunk is situated iu the pictur- 
esque gorge or canon formed by the hand 
of nature for the passage of the Lehigh 
River through the mountains. 

Besides being tmique in its site, it possesses 
a wealth of beauty in its surroundings that 
has given it a prominent place among the 
mountain cities of the world. The scenery 
in every direction is superb. Every prospect 
is replete with wild beauty ; every emotion 
excited by the outlook is one of admiration. 
Leading up from the city to the top of Mt. 
Pisgah is the celebrated Switchback Rail- 
road, which lifts the passengers to an eleva- 
tion of eighteen hundred feet above the 
waters of the river. The ascent, though ab- 
solutly safe, is exciting, and the view, both 
from the car and from the mountain's top, is 
magnificent. Within a few minutes' ride up 
the Lehigh is the beautiful Glen Onoko.

MONTREAL, P. Q. 

Is situated upon the southeast side of a 
triangular island formed by the mouths of 
the Ottawa, where, after a course of 600 
miles, it flows into the St. Lawrence. Popu- 
lation, 200,000. 

Back of the city, but within its limits, 
rises Mount Royal (700 feet), on the simimit 
of which is a fine park. The city is on about 
the same spot where the Indian village 
Hockelaga existed when Cartier visited this 
neighborhood early in the sixteenth century. 

It has been under English rule since 1761 
— prior to which it was in possession of the 
French.

NEW BEDFORD, MASS. 

New Bedford glories in the possession of 
one of the finest, as well as the most pictur- 
esque, harbors of the Atlantic coast. The 
entrance to the harbor, lying between Clark's 
Neck and Sconticut Point, is strongly forti- 
fied, and the wharf frontage extends along 
the broad Acushnet for two 'miles. Fair- 
haven, on the opposite shore of the river, is 
connected with the city by a long bridge. 
The citv rises gradually from the water's 
edge, and the streets are shaded aud beauti- 
fied by fine old elms. A public driveway 
extending along the coast for five miles pre- 
sents excellent views of the ocean and the 
islands which dot its surface. The various 
industries of New Bedford attract people of 
all nationalities, and an idle hour may be 
well passed in studying the various types of 
its inhabitants. 

New Bedford is the starting point for the 
steamer ride to Nantucket, Martha's Vine- 
yard, and Cottage City. 

It has pleasant neighbors in the pretty 
summer towns of Fairhaven, Mattapoisett, 
Marion and Nonquit.

NEW^PORT, R. I. 

This fashionable watering place probably 
takes first place in that it out-ranks all other 
of our resorts in age and in the social scale. 

"Nature has lavished her riches on the 
spot. There is rare beauty in the land, its 
grass and shrubs ; there is a surpassing charm 
in air and sky, and a fascination in the sea 
and its blue waters with gem-like isles." 

The city is of itself a beautiful place ; its 
habitations costly and elaborate. Its drives 
are world famous, particularly the cliff road, 
which, and in season, presents a magnificent 
array of gorgeous eqttippages and richly 
dressed people.

NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y. 

This magnificent cataract, the grandeur of 
which has been but inadequtely dwelt upon 
by many celebrated writers, calls for far 
more elaborate treatment than in our limit- 
ed space, even if we had words at command 



152 



DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 



to do this wonder of Nature justice, we can 
allot to it. We are only able to hint at few 
of its marvels and to dilate a little on the 
unrivalled beauty of the ceaseless roaiing 
"Thunder of Waters." 

To the aborigines, this wonderful cataract 
was called " Ony-a-ka-ra " and " Og-na- 
ka-ra " " Thunder of Waters," and thus it 
will be seen that even they, in all their sini- 
plicit}', realized what a mighty work Nature 
had here accomplished. Niagara Falls never 
becomes monotonous to the visitor. Any 
one gazing upon it realizes how hard it is 
to be able to describe it adequately, for any 
attempt at word-painting of this rolling 
flood would prove but a poor travesty of the 
work of Almighty God. 

Three distinct falls comprise the whole. 
These are the ' ' Horse Shoe ' ' on the Canadian 
side, " American " on the Niagara or United 
States side, and "Central," which descends 
between Luna and Goat Islands. Three 
thousand feet is the entire breadth of the 
combined falls. 

Niagara ranks as the foremost of the 
world's wonders, and is visited annually 
by hundreds of thousands from all parts. 
Indeed many a newly married couple will 
spend their honeymoon there. 

It has been stated that the sound of the 
falling waters can be heard at a distance of 
24 miles, and that from eighteen to twenty- 
one millions of cubic feet of water descend 
per minute from the river above. The lakes 
and streams that find an outlet in the Niagara 
River drain five hundred thousand or more 
square miles of land, and the lakes and trib- 
utaries themselves cover a surface of one 
hundred and fifty thousand square miles. 

The river in its onward flow to Lake Ontario 
has a fall of 334 feet. It dashes heedlessly on 
over rocks and islets and is lashed into foam 
all the way toLewiston. No craft yet built 
— -yes, one, the Maid of the Mist, on June 
15, 1861, was successfully taken from the foot 
of the falls, through the rapids and whirl- 
pool , and finally delivered on Lake Ontario — 
even were the water of sufficient depth, could 
sail the rapids. vSeveral daring adventurers 
have sacrificed their lives to win fame and 
money by braving the rapids, the foremost 
among these was Captain Webb. 

The State of New York having secured the 
rights to the lands adjacent to the Falls, has 
incorporated them into Niagara Park, which 
embraces the greatest points of interest on 
the American side. The park is open to the 
public free of charge. Goat Island, con- 
nected with this park by a bridge, offers the 
best view of the falls, and from Prospect 
Park, on the mainland, the scenery is mag- 
nificient. The drive along the Canadian shore 
affords a splendid view of the gorge and 
rapids. 

Connected with the falls are innumerable 



points of interest, principal among which are 
the Cave of the Winds, Three Sisters Island, 
Burning Spring, the Whirlpool Rapids, Sus- 
pension and Cantilever Bridges. A sensa- 
tional trip is that made across the river below 
the falls in a little steamer, the modern Maid 
of the Mist. 

The drives around Niagara are very inter- 
esting, and the village itself, with its pretty 
homes, fine streets and great numbers of 
large well-kept hotels, should be explored 
by visitors.

OCEAN GROVE, (Asbury Park), N. J. 

What is now the resort of hundreds of 
thousands of summer visitors was originally 
(and that but a few years since) a camp 
ground of members of the Methodist church. 

To-day it is a splendid summer city by 
the sea. 

The rules prohibiting the sale of intoxicat- 
ing liquors at any time, and forbidding driv- 
ing, boating, bathing, etc., on Sunday are 
strictly enforced, and that a resting place 
with such moral observance is very popular 
with a large proportion of the people is 
amply attested by the unparalleled prosper- 
ity to be witnessed at Ocean Grove.

OLD ORCHARD BEACH, ME. 



apple 



The name is derived from an old 
orchard a few miles from Saco, Me. 

The beach, however, is the great attrac- 
tion, being rated the finest in New England. 
Having an average width of three hundred 
feet at low tide, and extending about ten 
miles in length, it offers not only splendid 
bathing facilities but a charming drive.

OLD POINT COMFORT, VA. 
(Fortress Monroe.) 

Peace has here erected monumental re- 
minders of her victories in the Soldier's 
Home, National Normal School, etc., in- 
teresting accompaniments to a sojourner, 
whether he hies him here to rest and re- 
creation from business cares or in search of 
restored health. A matnmoth hotel, of the 
first-class, supplies every creature comfort ; 
the broad l)ay offers diversions that are com- 
peted for by the picturesque precincts of the 
fortress. 

Music, the dance, bright uniforms, ships 
of war and peace, add life to the splendid 
picture, and though far away from the 
everyday activity of city life, monotony is 
unknown.

PROFILE HOUSE, N. H. 
(White Mountains.) 

The Profile House is the principal resort 
ill the PVanconian range, the feature in the 
locality being Mt. Lafayette (5,585 feet), 
Cannon, Bald, Liberty, Pleasant and others. 
Other peculiarities are Echo Lake, Eagle 
Cliff, Old Man of the Mountain, Profile Lake, 
the Plume, Pool, etc., etc. The house 
though immense in size and placed at an 
elevation of 2,000 feet above sea level, is 
sunk into comparative insignificance, so 
small is it compared with the almost perpen- 
dicular mountains which rise up from its 
doors. 

What is particularly striking here is the 
magnitude of everything. The air is, of 
course, pure as can be obtained ; the drives 
are perfect in their roadbed and penetrate 
romantic regions.

QUEBEC, P. Q. 

Qtiebec, a great city of 75,000 inhabitants, 
is the only walled city in this country. It is 
triangular in form (St. Charles and St. Law- 
rence Rivers, and Plains of Abraham being' 
the lines). There are really two towns — 
upper and lower — the former being strongly 
fortified and elevated nearly four hundred 
feet above the latter. 

It is quaint and antique in the extreme 
and strangers are naturally surprised to find 
so ancient a city in this part of the world. 
The Citadel attracts every visitor to Quebec. 

Within the battlements there are more 
than forty acres, the wall surrounding which 
is about three miles long.

SHELDRAKE, N. Y. 

Cayuga Lake is one of the finest inland 
lakes that make Central New York so 
famous as a summer resort. It is forty miles 
long and reposes between high hills that 
stretch along its entire length, and far be- 
yond to the south. It is, also, one of the 
most magnificent lakes in this country, 
being clear and of great depth ; it abounds 
in most entrancing scenery. Lake fishing, 
which is always a delightful pastime, is here 
indulged in every season by many enthusi- 
astic fishermen, who invariably catch sufii- 
cient trout, bass, etc., to convince one that 



old Cayuga Lake is the veritable Mecca of 
anglers. 

Sheldrake, is a pretty little hamlet situ- 
ated on the shore of the lake fifteen miles 
from Ithaca. The nights in this locality 
are cool and dry. Water is noted for 
its purity and medicinal qualities. Winding 
roads, under shade trees on the very shore 
of the lake, make this country noted for 
its drives. 

Sheldrake can be reached by Robert L. 
Darragh's line of excursion steamers which 
run at frequent intervals between Sheldrake 
and Ithaca. These boats are new and have 
a speed of iS knots an hour.

SILVER LAKE, N. Y. 

Silver Lake, famous for a brief, glorious 
period, a generation ago, because of its 
fabled sea serpent, has gained a less transi- 
tor}^ fame in these latter days in that it has 
its devoted band of those who worship at 
Nature's shrine along its gravelly shores. 
Here, as at Couesus and Keuka and Seneca, 
yes, and as at Lake George, the cottage 
builder has adorned the leafy shores with his 
gay bungalow, and the tents of the campers 
gleam far across the sleeping waters. 

The Geneseo Conference Camp Ground 
Association has thirty acres of improved 
grounds enclosed, on which are erected 
about sixty cottages, and the Silver Lake 
Temperance Assembly has a very extensive 
rendezvous upon the lake, meeting here 
annually. 

Taken altogether, the grounds and sur- 
roundings are the handsomest to be found 
in Western New York, and are annually 
visited by over 30,000 people. There is a 
cabin, the first one of the kind ever erected 
in the United States, as a Pioneer Log Cabin 
Museum, and the collection within its walls 
could never be replaced should it by any 
means be destroyed.

dividing Seneca and Cayuga Lakes, and, 
flowing down the easterly watershed, finally 
reaches the latter by a prodigious plunge

ing the Falls of Taughannock, the highest 
single cascade in the State, having a direct 
fall of two hundred and fifteen feet. The 
gorge is plainly visible from the decks of 
passing steamers, but its creamy, headlong 
cataract is deeply hidden b^- the environing 
foliage. About ten miles from Ithaca.

WATKINS GLEN, N. Y. 

Here Dame Nature, outdoiug herself, per- 
fected a work that would reflect nothing but 
credit upon herself, for this wonderful piece 
of earthen architecture fills all humanity 
with amazement. 

Of all places visited by those who go to 
enjoy themselves, and who love t(j investi- 
gitethe wonders of this land, none has won 
such well-merited fame as Watkius Glen. 
From the very entrance of the Glen to its 
extreme limit there is .something charming 
to be seen. 



::i^^- 




The Glen is situated in the village of 
Watkins, Schuyler County, at the head of 
Seneca Lake. ' The village in itself is a 
pretty spot, but the Glen, of course, is the 
main attraction. 

This Glen consists of a series of cascades, 
galleries and weird caves, and here and there 
silver cascades are to be found that impart a 
wonderfully romantic appearance to this ro- 
mantic spot. 

Here human art stepped in to assist Nature 
in exhibiting her marvelous store of won- 
ders to the best advantage. Before any 
explorations could be made by tourists it 
became necessary to erect ladders, by means 
of which ascents could be made from one 
steep incline to another, and to cut pathways 



in the rock. This was done by the pro- 
prietor of the Glen Mountain House, who 
owns the Glen, and offers the best facilities 
of inspection to his guests. 

Probably the most beautiful of the attrac- 
tions of this .spot is Rainbow Falls, so called, 
because at particular seasons when the sun 
is in a certain position, it shines through 
the mist which emanates from the waterfall, 
causing it to assume all the colors of the 
rainbow. The other great attractions are 
Entrance Cascade, Trout Pool, Glen Alpha, 
Stillwater Gorge, Minnehaha Cascade, Fairy 
Cascade, Neptune's Pool, Cavern Cascade, 
Cavern Gorge and the Labyrinth. 

A delightful feature of the chasm is the 
wonderful coolness of the air. The sun 
never shines here, and very often on the 
hottest day a light wrap becomes a neces- 
sary adjunct to a tour of inspection.

DALRYMPLE 



ELMIRA'S 

FINEST 

SUBURB 



Is the name selected for what is to become Ehnira's finest suburb. It is a 
beautiful name, indeed, and one that will be found well suited to the place. 
The name is taken from that of the old and honorable family that has so 
long resided upon this property. It is true that the Queen City of the 
Southern Tier hr.s no rival in its wealth of magnificent and charming 
suburban territor}-. Dalrymple will excel. Elmira, as is well known, is, 
and for many years has been, the most promising city of the Southern Tier. 
Whatever doubt there may at anj^ time have been upon this point has been 
forever dispelled by the triumphant manner in which Elmira has passed 
through the perilous, panicky times of the last four years. 

SIZE AND PRICE OF LOTS ^ ^ ^ 

All lots, except those fronting on Pennsylvania Avenue, have a frontage of 
50 feet and are from i37>2 to 140 feet deep. These lots are offered for a 
limited time at |;200 each. The title of this property is of the best, and has 
passed the inspection of the most skillful conveyancers within a year. 
Payments are |;io.oo down at the time of purchase and the balance in 
monthly, semi-mouthly, or weekly instalments at the rate of not less than 
I5.00 per month, payable at the home office, Elmira, N. Y. 
Situated 100 miles from Syracuse and from Rochester and 150 miles from 
Buffalo, Elmira is the only city of her class in a large circle of territory, and 
is the main center of distribution for the counties of Chemung, Tioga, Tomp- 
kins, Schuyler, Yates, Steuben and Allegany in New York State, and 
Bradford, Wyoming, Sullivan, Tioga and Potter, in Pennsylvania. Four of 
the great trimk lines of the continent — the Erie, the Lackawanna, the Lehigh 
and the Pennsylvania — enter Elmira, furnishing unsurpassed facilities for 
transportation.
